Pros

Oracle is a solid employer offering competitive compensation packages. It's also big enough that you can find the right work-life balance somewhere in the company, but it may take some time to find it. Collaboration is critical to success because of the large number of people involved with every decision. But, its worth is demonstrated in the quality of the products we produce.

Cons

Oracle is big, and it keeps getting bigger. Standing out and getting your voice heard is a big challenge. Competition is everywhere and employees are very territorial, so focus on teamwork rather than individual contributions. Also, you may end up working here even if you go elsewhere due to constant acquisition-based growth.

Pros

Oracle is taking over the enterprise software world, so if you want to work for the new leader its the place to be. Compensation is average to below average. Seems like the overall mentality is one of "clock in, get some stuff done, clock out". Very little drive. Some people view this as a plus.

Cons

Outsourcing and globalization. if you live in the US you wont be working for oracle in 10 years. Nobody cares if you are here or not, its very difficult to work your way up the chain.
