Pros

As a consultant it's a great situation, considering your familty situation. I earn per diem, my travel is paid for which is great. The training is WAY above par to any other company I've been with, I usually get my once a quarter training in a discipline which I want to learn. Management has been great so far, keeping me informed on what's going on.

Cons

High pressure situation. People will come at you OFTEN. It's not a job where you just learn your little niche. You'll constantly have to constantly need to upgrade your skills.

Pros

There are incredibly smart and talented software developers from my perspective in the database division. If you like developing and maintaining systems software, there are many (and sometimes too many!) challenging problems to tackle in the database. If you like to learn and expand your horizons, there are many database components, database internals, algorithms, and optimizations for you to investigate. Developers are generally willing to share their knowledge, unless they are too busy with short-term deadlines. Management keeps politics to a minimum in the database division.

Cons

The company and database division have grown in size significantly in the last decade and have had creeping bureaucracy. Programming-in-the-large is never an easy task.

Pros

Oracle is taking over the enterprise software world, so if you want to work for the new leader its the place to be. Compensation is average to below average. Seems like the overall mentality is one of "clock in, get some stuff done, clock out". Very little drive. Some people view this as a plus.

Cons

Outsourcing and globalization. if you live in the US you wont be working for oracle in 10 years. Nobody cares if you are here or not, its very difficult to work your way up the chain.
