Pros

Best Data Base company in the world. it's going to be around for a while.

Cons

It's a place where "knowledge is power". Therefore people hold on to what they know and prefer not to share it. Otherwise, you'll know what they know, and they won't be "better". The rating system helps to enforce this. No one wants to share information or work together in case you might become better than they are.

Pros

Oracle is a huge, successful software development company, which means that software development IS the business, and development staff is not treated as just another cost center. Compensation and benefits are very good, and there is a great deal of flexibility when it comes to the hours one works. The ability to telecommute whenever it is necessary or convenient is also very nice.

Cons

Due to the breadth of software produced, a lot of time is spent integrating the products, which necessitates long release cycles. It's hard to get anything done quickly. There is also an abundance of process to control all of the continuous product integration, which also dampens one's ability to work quickly. Also, it is quite difficult to get promoted. The running joke is that you have to leave and come back to get a promotion.
