Pros

Oracle offers Incredible growth opportunities, both as a company and personally. Given its numerous acquisitions and license growth, opportunities present themselves around every corner.

Cons

Oracle is a very large, complex organization and can sometimes be difficult to determine where to go or to whom to speak for information and answers. The company relies a great deal on self-service, for things like HR and benefits enrollment, expenses, etc., but sometimes can be overly reliant on this - sometimes you just simply need to talk to a person.

Pros

Many areas to wok in, so moving into new areas is never a problem. Lot of opportunity to learn from the strong community within. Management is decent, and work culture is pretty good. Oracle brand name is well recognized and will stand in good stead for the future.

Cons

Huge, so feels bureaucratic at times. Also, kind of a high end body shop really.

Pros

Great benefits, self service oriented. Great training and experience but life span employment here is about 2 years. Oracle is all about churn and burning their employees. We have some of the very best and brightest people in the world working here and fantastic training programs. Chances are you wont ever meet those bright people b/c of our caste system. And the great training? You'll be so burnt out you wont have the energy to do any of it. Working here is like having a glimpse into Santa's workshop and seeing Rudolph. But you are looking in the window, never talking to Santa, or being acknowledged.

Cons

Reorgs every year with next to no communication regarding structure, reason and long term plan. Very short sighted middle management with next to nothing in communication. No raises. Oracle will churn and burn you. What makes you good is what makes you bad. Good things: reputation, intellectual capital, products, training, benefits, various perks. bad things: reputation - working with people who treat each other like crap because "we're Oracle" and this is how we do things. too bad if Mr Customer doesn't like it; intellectual capital - unless your coming from Stanford, MIT, Harvard or Wharton MBA dont expect to get all those special perks.
