      Pros

      I can share my perspectives with respect to product dev org in Oracle India. Donno much about other orgs(some 20 are there...product dev consists of just 1 or 2)There are diverse products/technologies available to work in. They were not really built by oracle but nonetheless it owns it and they all have been best of breed. Lots of developmental/design efforts are continuously going on, which keeps you learning all the time. And that means learning real good stuffs. I work as product dev engineer in Siebel and the work is nice. Compensation is pretty decent. Nobody minds the hours you work at your conveience (you have to work pretty long hours though) , the result is what counts(you have to explain ofcourse in case you take longer than expected..no free lunch there). Overall, I would certainly recommend joining oracle.

      Cons

      Long hours. IT infrastructure is not very good in Siebel prod dev..not sure about other groups. Somehow, it is recruiting a lot of very avg. engineersfrom private unknown institutions just to ramp up the operations fast, which is not a good thing.

      flexible work hours but not for a long term career

      Pros

      Most people including me would chose flexible work hours for the best reason to work for Oracle. Normally, you will just need to complete your project in a timely manner, and you manager would not count your work hours. Sometimes, I have to work late or weekends to finish up my projects, but I am also very comfortable to get out of work early for my personal matters. Of course, it is the best place to learn Oracle application products and databases. They offer excellent training resources such as Oracle university.

      Cons

      The company is huge , and I often found poor internal communication. Definitely, compared to a small software company, it is very hard to move to a management position from a developer. There are many developers who have been there more than 10 years and still have been waiting / looking for an opportunity to get promoted to a management position.
