Pros
- Remote work flexibility - Oracle brand name on your resume - Some talented coworkers (who are usually planning their exit)
Cons
- OCI is embarrassingly behind other major tech companies, and working there makes it clear why - Leadership falsely promotes that they can meet customer demands when they constantly fail to deliver - Reactive, chaotic environment driven by poor planning and knee-jerk decisions - Secret layoffs happen regularly, structured just under the WARN notice threshold to avoid public reporting - Layoffs are followed by hiring cheaper replacements to artificially boost quarterly earnings - Pay is far below market standards for a tech company - RSU packages are inflated in offers but most employees are laid off before vesting - No real career development, mentorship, or performance reviews - Employees are treated like disposable placeholders, not valuable team members - Toxic culture built on fear, politics, and short-term optics over true innovation
