Pros

i flexible oracle's flexible work. Telecommuting, good fitness center, seems like turnover is low.

Cons

Limited career advancement opportunities, low or no pay increase. Telecommuting people are even working from India for weeks. During that period of time time folks are not reachable.

Pros

Great if you are looking for a place to hide. Flexible on the working hours (working from home is acceptable).

Cons

Very little recognition, no opportunity to raise above the crowd. Heard from my indian colleagues that it is pretty hard to get a Green Card.

Business Outlook

Pros

It is a huge company and have many resources. There are so many things, technologies and/or products that you can learn and try. It is all free because all owned by Oracle. The experience will enhance your technical skill and some of the products, to be frank, are fairly leading edge.

Cons

The schedule is so tight, they will not invest on training. You have to take initiative at your own time. Also, do not expect raise at all nor stock option grant instead negotiate a higher salary starting. Even your manager do want to give u a raise, her hand is tied. It is all control by the most upper management.
