Pros

Sick leave benefits they offer a decent amount of hours (100) that you can use for yourself or immediate family members when needed Medical/Dental are decent with little out of pocket costs

Cons

Recruiting team blatantly lied about some of the benefits and increases that would be available Poor pay with zero performance raises (even if you go above and beyond) they will tell you some BS that the department as a whole is down in numbers No training that will help you do your job better or understand the products...they will lie and tell you they will set you up with some extension training but never do its either sink or swim Very little advancement or progress to move up in the company I firmly believe there is some type of favoritism or discrimination against employees as you do not see many or anyone from the Hospitality support teams get promoted Not enough staffing or resources almost every employee in Support department is overworked and stressed because each person has a high number of support cases. On top of that they expect you to take high volume of incoming calls and high priority cases. Its impossible to keep up or do your job effectively and all hospitality customers are frustrated and angry because there's no one to provide support on their issues or even know how to fix them. Zero management and disorganized in every shape there's no way to even begin to start on how bad the upper management teams are. No one cares about hospitality support department and I believe executives thinks its a waste of money. Stay far far far far away from Oracle Hospitality Support (unless you want a mindless job with no direction)

Pros

Historic tech company that boosts the resume. Lots of experienced workers. Great training opportunities. Really good money for very little work.

Cons

This pre-sales role is incredibly dull and not worth the stress if you have even one drop of personality in you. It's the same dull work over and over again (calls, emails, Linkedins) to people who don't care and hate Oracle. Management is terrible--does not understand why people aren't in love with sales and refuses to modernize. Burlington office especially is full of New England WASPs who are blatantly sexist and think they run the world. While real money can be made for very little work, metrics are constantly changing thus making the money impossible to actually get. Management doesn't seem to get that this role is not about making actual sales and doing your best doesn't matter. You can hit 400% of your number (you get capped at 200%) and still be berated / asked why you don't have anything going on. Work from home and taking time off is virtually impossible, don't even try to take multiple sick days because you will get threatened with HR. Oracle doesn't seem to realize that it's going down the tube and still expects its workers to worship the Oracle brand. IF you like drinking and being around boring coworkers who do the same thing day after day, this is the place for you, otherwise don't waste your time on a company that just sucks your soul out.

Pros

They have a decent cloud product but do not know how to sell it

Cons

Mark Hurd is a horrible CEO, cost cutting is the only tool in his bag. If he were not Larry Ellison's tennis buddy he would be fired. He has completely decimated Oracle's sales team and go to market organization and they are losing ground against established cloud competitors and SAP
