Vantaggi
Great benefits; lots of opportunities; expansive product portfolio
Svantaggi
No appreciation for experience. Executive management feels that recent grads with no experience can replace experienced talent. I have no issues hiring younger employees...but it is hard to replace experienced solution engineers with recent grads when the experienced SEs go to competitors. Sales territories are small and many reps aren't capable of selling. Again, experienced sales reps have gone to the competition. More of the sales job has been passed to the Solution Engineering team, which is also much less-experienced than in the past. The application teams have also become too siloed, losing much of the benefit of a large product offering. SE bonuses are very small compared to industry competitors and historical bonuses at Oracle. It is all about increasing margins at Oracle, not increasing market share.
