Pros

The company is great to learn new things. It has a great name with a lot of recognition. Great to start and build your career. Pretty big and complex projects with large number of people. You can have access to great training and meet really smart people.

Cons

Too many processes. It's hard to go into projects that are cool and interesting. Deadlines are not met and projects extend beyond reason. I would like to see a more agile approach similar to Google.

Pros

Talented co-workers, good product set with history of producing world class products and support, excellent industry reputation and recognition, strong product strategy for incorporating the many products acquired over the past several years, commitment to support the legacy versions of applications acquired, expanding applications footprint

Cons

Some confusion with expansion, takes time to assimilate acquired products, people and corporate cultures. Sales organization sometimes is a bit aggressive for some customers liking. Consulting organization struggles at times to handle large programs or projects, often partners with other consulting organizations where the other consulting organization assumes the lead role in the programs or projects.

Pros

Oracle is a big, well-recognized, company with offices all over the world. It also has a lot of opportunities within the company that people can transfer between job functions. Oracle is a leader in most, if not all, the products in the market, and it acquired a lot of its competitiors in the last few years. Employees are working on the best products and technology, leveraging a lot of these from its acquired companies. Besides, Oracle has a wide range of customers from Fortune 100 companies to small or medium-sized companies. Thus, employees know they are building the best products out there serving the biggest companies.

Cons

Oracle offers very low compensation packages and provides very little career advancement guidance for employees. Managers are not well-trained to lead teams, and have very inconsistent practices on promotion.
