Pros

Oracle is a big company, if you have a god father to take care of you, your promotion and benefits will be reasonable.

Cons

Oracle has some of the worst managers who can do anything they want. HR is mute,they never do anything for the employees unless there is chance of geting sued. A snr.Managers salary and benefits is equivalant to a Application engineers salary in the industry. Bunus can be 3-5%, stock options at snr level can patheticaly low or nill. Oracle is not interested in taking care of their employees especialy in US. Not a single employee in Application is division is happy, that is why the code quality is poor. Turn over rate in Oracle's india development center is one of the highest in the industry..close to 20%

Pros

Very large company and there are many opportunities to try different things. for those starting out in technology or are early in their career, the opportunities are endless. Great benefits, great training availability.

Cons

Very poor management and leadership. Promotions handed out more due to seniority than competency. Poor work culture, too political. Successful careers are identified with ability to expand and build your empire, which forces ambitious and motivated people to emulate those activities rather than build competencies to be truly successful in a new position. No one ever gets fired or reprimanded for failure, which there is alot of at Oracle. Dates are always missed, people are not held accountable.
