Pros

Training provided by the organization is world class. Both management and technical oppurtunities are available. Marketing and product development might be a better place to work for this organization

Cons

Consulting division is the most neglected division of the entire consulting firm available out in the market. The no. of bis versus win ratio must the smallest of all. The attrition rate might the highest in the industry.

Pros

Very knowledgeable and supportive co-workers, access to technology and products firsthand so good opprotunity to learn and acquire new skills. Good benefits (healthcare, vacation etc). Oracle is also a good brand name to have on your resume when you move on to other companies in your career.

Cons

Not much growth opportunities, you are basically stuck in the same position for years (despite posting very good numbers) and also the merit increases are dismal despite the company posting record profits year after year. The upper management conitnues to neglect the lower level employees and therefore the company has a high turnover rate, very little communication between you and your manager so you basically feel like you are working as an independent but are on a payroll.
