Pros

As a consultant it's a great situation, considering your familty situation. I earn per diem, my travel is paid for which is great. The training is WAY above par to any other company I've been with, I usually get my once a quarter training in a discipline which I want to learn. Management has been great so far, keeping me informed on what's going on.

Cons

High pressure situation. People will come at you OFTEN. It's not a job where you just learn your little niche. You'll constantly have to constantly need to upgrade your skills.

Pros

As a consultant you get to work with some of the smartest people in the industry, and with a brand name like Oracle, some of the most interesting projects.

Cons

You can get lost in such a large company. Many times performance varies between the groups within Consulting, but bonuses are calculated on performance of all groups across North America. Less risk, but less reward.

Pros

The money is very difficult to beat, and some of your peers will be the smartest people in the marketplace and will become lifelong colleagues.

Cons

Oracle is not a work-life balance place. Plan on working non-stop while you are there - that is both a strength and a weakness of the company. Typically they give 2-3 people the same job and see who is standing at the end of the quarter. The person standing gets to keep the job for the next quarter. In addition, the ethics of this organization are both good in pockets and tremendously bad. There are managers on the government side doing business in such a manner as to be shocking. If you want to have an ethical compass, I would make sure you have it well in place before you work at Oracle.
