Top performer = 0% raise for over last 5 years, 0 level changes over 9 years.
Pros
Oracle provides awesome opportunities for work in general. Oracle sure looks nice on your resume
Cons
- Many years without raise, with the explanation given being that I'd have reached my level cap. That has been the same story I've been told over the last 8 years . - ridiculous number of never ending, time enforced, web based mandatory trainings about, for example, bribes and anti competitive behavior, none of which is applicable at all to the vast majority of employees as they don't ever work in sales or contracting etc. - apparently managers don't actually have any leverage to arrange for performance related pay increases as that seems to be entirely in the hands of HR. - poor communication when it comes to product roadmaps, future direction, and company goals beyond the most vague and superficial hype-presentations that lack any substantial detail as well as relevance to specific product lines from one's own internal org.
