      Huge, bureaucratic company, great at team level

      Pros

      I had a great time working with the former Sun Microsystems part that Oracle Corporation acquired in 2008. Specifically working on the Solaris kernel. This part I like--a lot. I worked with one of the best teams of people in terms of talent and being part of a cooperative, fun team. Pay is good--or at least competitive. Being a big company gives many opportunities to look around elsewhere if you don't like what you are doing now. The top-management are competitive and have business smarts (if not always technical smarts).

      Cons

      Huge bureaucratic company with many processes to slow productive work down. The corporate level seems hostile to cutting-edge technology and research. Too many layoffs--they seem to perfer to layoff than reassign people. My part of the company, former Sun Microsystems/Solaris/SPARC, is now gutted and doesn't really exist any longer except for a skeleton crew for sustaining support.

      Pros

      Oracle has some very smart and technical people and managers which makes for a good and challenging work environment. The technology and tools are great. I highly recommend for people looking to tise into technical management or get a few years if your new in your career.

      Cons

      If your in a long term technical track and do nit want to manage people, I would not recommend staying at Oracle more than a few years since they do nit do salary raises only management promoting.

      Pros

      Great colleagues, great location, company has great potential

      Cons

      Poor salary (comparatively) unless you leave Oracle and come back to Oracle, management is in total disarray, don't use any of the products that we are trying to sell (still use spreadsheets)
