Vantaggi
Oracle is an incredible place to work. There is opportunity everywhere. It does required a couple things though. 1) You can be having the time of your life while the person sitting next to you is not.. This is the nature of a company as large and diverse as Oracle. Therefore you need to do you're due diligence and ensure the manager/role/KPI's etc. are going to give you a good work environment. Don't rely on 'Oracle' as it's too big - be sure you understand the team you are going into. The company is in a growth spurt particularly in the Sales function around cloud applications. This can mean ambitious hiring in advance of the demand so if you are going into a sales role be a self starter and study up on demand generation. 2) Bring your personality, idea's innovation and positivity. Oracle is crying out for this and we were always on the hunt for people to make a positive example of. I've seen careers grow incredibly fast as people take their own initiatives. I've also seen people a couple weeks in the company leading global projects - just because they like the subject matter and pushed for something to happen. 3) Branch out! Meet new people every day. The ones that isolate themselves to a small group often find themselves lonely in the long run... It's a place where you need to get your name out there and find something to be known for.
Svantaggi
Oracle Dublin is an amazing place to work overall. Currently there are parts of the business changing incredibly fast.While this always brings opportunity it can make for a tough start if you prefer something more stable.. Overall however if you are adverse to change - Oracle is not the place for you..
