      Great work experience for your resume, but not a company you can retire at.

      Pros

      You are selling the best products in the industry. When competing against other companies to win a deal, you have an advantage, because everything Oracle owns is the best. It is easy to get in the door with customers because everyone uses at least one product within the Oracle product stack. It is a good thing to have on your resume.

      Cons

      This is a very cut throat company and they are not known for treating their employees with the greatest of respect. Management does not have the upmost in talent. They are incredibly cheap with things such as travel, awards, team lunches. The processes to close a deal are too overwhelming. For eg. you have to negotiate contracts with the lawyers on the customer side, but Oracle will not put a lawyer on the phone.

      Build some code, a political fiefdom, or a bit of both

      Pros

      It's a big company. Big resources, the ability to move within the company, the excitement of an occassional M&A. Generally, bright folks. Lots of "work" to be done -- it's a good environment to learn and build skills.

      Cons

      Career development is difficult. Higher levels are filled with politics. Teamwork within the extended company (outside your little close group) is very limited. Escalations up your management chain and copy-everyone-in-the-world email provides "excitement".

      Steady goes the acquisition machine.

      Pros

      Money - Benefits decent , A good place to pick up training on different technology platforms and application suites.

      Cons

      Cog in the machine. Communications from management follows a series retreaded messages from the top down. Simplest decisions must be "manager" approved which slow the process. If you are part of acquired company , Best of Luck!
