Pros

Compensation is generally good for the industry.

Cons

In Inside Sales be prepared to be micro-managed, right down to who you called, in which specific minute of the day, how long you spoke, and what the revenue implications were that month. I worked for the education division for over a year and was regularly one of the top 3 reps (in revenues) on a monthly basis within a team of 75. Still, I was continually pestered about call counts/talk time etc.

Pros

Oracle India gives a friendly environment for people to work and increase their expertise. The managers are non intrusive to work and generally do not put much pressure on the employees. In Development teams, the people are technically sound and its a great learning experience overall. In this recessing global economy , Oracle India has managed to ward off any significant layoffs. The work life balance is something valued by even the managers and unless hard pressed they expect their employees to finish off the work in stipulated time to avoid long hours in office. There is hardly any weekend culture present in the Organization.

Cons

Unless a dedicated effort is put by the individuals , there is a significant risk of loosing out in technology when compared with the employees of other companies. The laid back approach may be frustrating at time. However I am yet to disclose the biggest downside.. It is the compensation , largely due the disparity in salary for an entry level employee to an experienced employee. Bonuses are also less and are rarely distributed. There has been no hike for more than an year.
