Pros

The best thing about Oracle India is the work culture. Flexi timings (decide your own schedule and amount want to spend in office), work from home facility when needed, meetings mostly over the phone and the management is usually supportive about vacations and leaves, but may vary from manager to manager. Work and personal life balance is great, and working on weekends is not encouraged or expected here, as it may be many other companies. Well work and challenges may vary from team to team, but you will surely find a wide range of opportunities to choose from, Oracle being the second largest software product company.

Cons

Promotions and appraisals is not as transparent as you would want it to be. It is usually at the the whim of the manager and compensations might vary widely for the same level. There is no reverse feedback which sometimes might have a lot of negative implications for a subordinate stuck under a inconsiderate manager.

Pros

With less number of years of experience, ppl normally be willing to learn and upgrade themself technically. Oracle is the right place if ur interest lies in learning new technologies and xplore new stuff. Flexi timings, employee respect and good environment are other reasons that definitely needs to be considered.

Cons

Ppl will be surpriced if I say Oracle donot pay much. But though bitter, its the recent fact. Then, its really a tough job to get promotions here earlier than the normal 2 yr appraisal cycle which every normal company would follow. Inspite of getting 4 ratings, need to beg for promotion.

Pros

The people who work in Oracle are all very supportive and there is a real sense of community.

Cons

As a consultant, it can mean that you are told at very late notice about where you will be working/travelling to next, but this is really part of the job, so is to be expected.
