Pros

competitive, smart and very competitive bunch of people, on the whole people are easy to work with. Things got a little crazy at the last 12 months of it's existence, but otherwise management generally had good (if sometimes misguided) intentions.

Cons

suit and tie, top management takes care of themselves first. There seem to be a perception that you are only good if you have an MBA (particularly from the ivy leagues) and that MBAs can do anything, even if they have absolutely no aptitude, experience, or interest in the particular part of the job. E.g. QA, UI design, software design.

Pros

If you have a family and kids, want to take it easy and settle down in life, work at Oracle. Or, as an entry level job, Oracle is not a bad place to work for a year or two to add to your resume. Because it looks better on the resume than it actually is. The fitness center is good.

Cons

Reward for level of contribution vary widely between groups. If you are unlucky to be in the wrong group, forget about career advancement. If you are looking for some exciting work to motivate you, this is not the place to be.

Pros

Exciting place to work - compared to some large companies it is a fast paced work environment. Cool technology. Prestigous brand. Diverse set of products and opportunity to move around within company if you are good at what you do. Great campus and pretty decent overall benefits package

Cons

Top management are strong but plenty of examples of poor management lower down the levels. Very political - lot of empire building mentality. Easy to burn out. Salaries not always competitive and bonus payment not reliable
