Pros

In the technology field Oracle has a very good name and there is some pride in being able to say that you work for Oracle. Oracle is also a technology leader in many sectors and beats other competitors. Oracle has also rapidly expanded through strategic acquisitions to become a premier player in the business software sector beyond the core relational database products

Cons

Oracle is not an employee friendly company. They don't really place much emphasis on the individual. The overall benefits are also fairly poor for this industry sector. Working for a large company like Oracle has drawbacks due to its size
