Vantaggi
- For most part, Oracle is still a great technology company. Some of the LOBs have a lot more autonomy than others and if you are in one of those LOBs, the day-to-day work is exciting and incredibly fulfilling - Benefits aren't bad, but make sure that your initial salary negotiations are done right as you will almost never get a raise these days - Oracle is a great place for good people who wants to tune themselves off after a few years of frustration. So, depending on who you talk to you might have a great work-life balance or none.
Svantaggi
-Senior Management is a revolving door these days and the strategies keep changing. There is hardly any upward mobility in management as this helps executives to continue lying about the strategy and hide things from employees. - This used to be an engineering company. But now it's driven by sales people and lawyers. Engineering leads are mostly glorified Salesmen with the title of "Product Owners". They understand less and less of what it needs to succeed by bringing in cutting edge technologies - HR is a total waste. They should subcontract this work to some automated systems to save money. If your HR doesn't look out for employees, I'm not sure why they are there in the first place
