Pros

Solid company name recognition and industry reputation, good benefits w/plenty of options, pleasant working conditions in offices, excellent opportunities for training and personal development.

Cons

Huge company; easy to get lost. Bureaucratic structure; a lot of red-tape obstacles to getting things done. Rah-rah corporate culture a bit too much. Pay scale is average, and company very stingy with holidays and vacation days for U.S. non-managerial employees. Middle management personnel shuffling constantly. Virtually all help desk personnel servicing U.S. facilities are outsourced in overseas locations. Too much emphasis on stock performance and the bottom line.

Cons

- No clear strategy - Being part of a company that was acquired, culture differences with bigger Oracle still happens. - Tries to invent the wheel with unsatisfying results (ex. software tools and frameworks). - Working with offshore resources demands more time and effort (rework. - Approval chain to get something done hinders creativity.
