Pros
The people within my team/department were great. My manager was supportive and communicative. I learned a lot from my other coworkers. Due to that, I had lots of opportunities for growth. I was sad about leaving my team when I left the company. This is a good company for those who are starting out. There were plenty of resources and support when I first started. Everyone was very understanding on that. I learned a lot and got visibility to different things. Remote - I did not reside near any offices so I was remote. Some of coworkers within the area did both WFH and in-office. In the department I was in, it wasn't as strict.
Cons
Benefits - Came as part of an acquisition, I had some of benefits taken away which wasn't great (I was a salaried employee at the previous company but became hourly at Oracle). There was miscommunications in the acquisition time frame on benefits. PTO - Keep in mind that during the winter break when the office is closed, everyone is required to use their PTO. Not a big deal for those who are salaried (unlimited PTO) but if you're hourly (accrual PTO), you're required to use your PTO that you accrued ... for days when the office is closed. Pay raises - In the first part of 2023, they announced that no one was getting raises or promotions for the year, while only the higher ups were getting raises/promotions ...
