Pros

The only reason to work at oracle is to get expirence so that you can show in your resume. Once you have enough info to put in resume, it is not worth spending time working at oracle. They have a good top management and they know how to deal with the employee. Comapnies making huge profit but they do not share with employee.

Cons

No crarrier growth, they do not treat employee well.

Pros

Flexibility. If you are developers then you can pretty much work from home since we could connect to office machine via VPN. Meetings also can be attended via conference call. The benefits such as medical and 401K are pretty good comparing to other big companies. There are so many options for medical benefits so you could choose one that fits you. The vacation also pretty good since you do not have to report sick days =) Working experience differ from groups. If you are in ST group then consider yourself lucky since you pretty much got all the perks.

Cons

The downside is probably lack of promotions and raise. Promotions are very hard to get since there are so many to do list that need to be checked off, especially in ST. Since the company is big, you may feel your contributions are not significant since you mostly work only in small part of the product. But thats to be expected from big company like Oracle.

Pros

Good Place to Learn. Lots of training available if you want to learn.

Cons

Salary is well below industry standard. Chances of significant salary increases are nil. Employees are not rewarded well enough. Effort to retain good talent is negligible. The overall message the company seems to send its employees is "we don't care. Stay if you like, if not we will just outsource your job to India." In some groups managers are terrible, especially the ones with non-American Origin. I lost most of my hair working at one such group.
