Oracle - Good Company, But Be Careful

Pros

Oracle is a profitable company which is a good thing in today's IT environment. Sales reps have great opportunities to make significant incomes. Oracle offers very good benefits. Good family/work balance (working from home).

Cons

Management is too controlling. Approvals have to be made way up to senior management for everything. This slows processes significantly. Manager needs to be empowered to make decisions. Acquisition of Sun was not handled well from the employee standpoint. Tough transition with little direction and feedback to be productive in the new environment. Oracle did not seem to value the acquired employees. Disappointing.
