      Good company to work for with the expectation that you will not be there for long if you do not have a mentor.

      Pros

      Great company to work for in regards to product and service recognition.

      Cons

      Oracle constantly experienced growing pains because of buying other companies and their competition therefore the support mechanism was not in place as with the original company. When I worked for Oracle a good number of my accounts had JDEdwards which was apart of the Peoplesoft deal, we did not have proper staffing or general know how in converting accounts over. The general word on the street is that your employment at Oracle will be very short lived.

      Bad corporate culture - no raises

      Pros

      Oracle has average pay and benefits. The company will allow some time off it you are really sick and need more than just a few days off.

      Cons

      No pay raises at all, ever! No promotions unless you are in the senior managers inner circle. You can work your but off and not get recognized. I have specifically recommended that my friends not apply to work at Oracle unless they are unemployed.

      Pros

      Looks good on resume. I can see no other reason to work for them.

      Cons

      1) Meet Grinder 2) Leadership at VP level has no understanding of what makes employees productive 3) Employees are numbers, not people 4) You can make money, but it is not worth it 5) 20% of the employees are making all the money, while everyone else starves 6) Territories are not thought out correctly 7) Morale sucks to say the least 8) Management leads with fear instead of encouragement 9) Management is very arrogant and often do not listen to employees 10) too much red tape and politics 11) too much micromanagement 12) too many products to sell and customers are confused 13) There are no restrictions for customers to use the software, so sales folks have to always give the customers the bad news that they are out of compliance running software without paying for it
