Vantaggi
Some good benefits. Good company to get training and then move on to where you will be appreciated and rewarded. Great Software but Hardware side of Oracle is dying, big business is moving getting rid of their Sun estate and buying HP, Dell, IBM and running red hat as Oracle Hardware is far too expensive.
Svantaggi
Poor senior management in the UK, no pay rises very little career progression. no interaction with people, everything is done via email, making you feel even more like a little cog in a big wheel. Made to keep doing courses that are a waste of time and add nothing to a persons skill set. Lots of Rah Rah conference calls where managers pat themselves on the back for a job well done. Very greedy company, everything is about the bottom line and selling as much as you can. It's all about the money for the top one percent, very much like a wall street firm
