      Oracle from Sun Microsystems

      Software engineering manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Oracle is consistently profitable (vs Sun). Oracle management is pretty well aligned at a high level (vs Sun). Strong management at high level.

      Cons

      Oracle's strong management discourages independent thinking and innovation. Stagnant wages. I experienced an extreme bias towards Indian culture. Division I was in was 70% indian, and every open mgmt slot above me coincidentally got filled by an Indian.

      Stay away unless you have a particular project/group you're joining

      Engineering manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      predictable, hours are flexible, pay is ok, some managers are considerate, good lunch choices (though not free), on-campus gym

      Cons

      It's true that technologies that Oracle buys get no innovation unless it was already bringing in high margins. There are too many incompetent people at Oracle, whether from cousins and friends being hired or just folks know they can get away with things. Pay is not commiserate with experience or value to company, but then this is probably true in many companies, but here, PhD folks get hired who can't speak english, end up working on bugs and even then you wonder if they did things right. Anyhow, if you want to work in a place and feel like you're already retired, this might be for you. If you're looking for energy and innovation.... well, keep looking.
