Pros

At Oracle you receive very good industry recognition and respect from partners and others. The compensation is respectable and the health benefits are by and large excellent.

Cons

Most manages are of the Theory X variety, there is very little feedback about performance, yearly layoffs, a complete absence of career guidance and promotion is a crap shoot.

Pros

Oracle had a good training program for those not familiar with the database and application market. It was intermixed with working with existing sales people to get people up to speed quickly. The building was nice as it had a nice cafeteria and large free onsite gym to workout in.

Cons

There was no career path for sales people most people including top performers left after a while. Either you moved into management or you moved on. The sales team I worked with seemed to be a body shop with high turnover which could explain why the training was so good.

Oracle is great for balance, not growth.

Pros

Work Life Balance is fantastic. If you understand this you'll be ok. If you don't you'll be unhappy. Personally, I love Oracle for this reason. I have time to do my job and time to do what I love as well.

Cons

Very political. Difficult to move up in the organization or get pay increases. Join the company as high as you can.
