Pros

There's an onsite gym, and meals from the cafeteria are surprisingly good.

Cons

I worked at the Columbia, MD office, and management was dishonest to the point where it was impossible to do my job. This trait of dishonesty began during the interview process, where they lied to me about having the tools needed to troubleshoot issues. I wasn't even given access to a testing/sandbox environment, which is crucial for solving customers' issues. There was no company culture to speak of, just punch in, stay quiet, and punch out. When managers weren't around, support agents openly and loudly aired negative opinions about how inept they are. I didn't contribute to those conversations, but I did agree with the opinions that were expressed.

Pros

- medical benefits, dental benefits, vision benefits - 401k meet - most of the direct team knows their stuff, and will be your best friends throughout your time at Oracle

Cons

- low pay that doesn't even meet what other corporations are paying for the same position. - infrequent pay increases. No cost-of-living increases, either. - no bonuses - support is minimal, especially with a small team in a specific department - upper management will not listen. They are not leaders; they act like "bosses". They will tell others to fix the problem; they do nothing but delegate. - equipment is a joke. Laptops are refurbished, and any additional equipment (e.g., additional monitors) you may need you may need to expense out-of-pocket. Laptops cannot withstand the amount of work needed to complete tasks. - there will be no growth within the department, and it's incredibly difficult to even try and get out of the department. Also, if you try to apply internally for other positions, you'll likely never hear from anyone about your application. It's like they want you to stay in your current position and not allow you to move anywhere. - if you need to go into the office, you will have to pay for parking. You will not be allowed to expense the parking. Some buildings have free parking, but others are anywhere to around $25 a visit. - overtime is frowned upon. work-life balance is completely skewed. Can easily work 14 hour days.
