Oracle Associate Solutions Engineer reviews

Company size is also a con. Difficult to improve base salary once in. Promotions usually involve only increase in variable comp.

Sales reps are under trained, inexperienced , with high quotas. That means they are too often pursuing unqualified opportunities and wasting everyone's time. Too often, they also do not accept feedback or coaching. Oracle's strategy is to focus all career development initiatives on the recent college graduate program "Class of's". There is no career development for those of us in our mid-level career. That includes, no promotions, no raises, no differentiation. Compensation is low. You have to leave and come back to dictate more money and then, you'll have to leave again to get a raise. Hurd does not support promotions and increases within the SC org (newly re-branded as Solution Engineering). Bonuses don't happen. They cut the bonus program by 30% hold back, that we get "if" we meet cloud quota, which is so high that we never will. HCM products are slow to develop. They are also developed in silos, so that the underlying configuration logic doesn't match. It makes it increasingly difficult to sell in the HCM space against Workday.
