Oracle Software Development Manager reviews

Ridiculous policies . Pathetic compensations , no on sites or chances to earn any additional perks.Post 2009 , company has been continuously doing cost cutting by various means in India. This means yearly bonuses are getting vanished or becoming like "alms". Raises in salary are getting delayed every year with extremely abysmal increases.This is also reflecting in poor hires, bad product focus and quality. Also this is perhaps only one of the few companies in earth where a promotion does not guarantee a pay hike(at least immediately), that means increase in responsibility with no additional pay. A corresponding pay hike may take not a year or more to come. Managers are really good but could not do much to retain people , because systematically they have been made powerless by putting lot of "ifs and buts" in the policy. Technically you may learn a lot of skills here , but the sale-ability of 'em in the job market are very less as they are either very specific to the org or not state-of-the-art.

One needs to think about his own career path; otherwise, it is easy to get buried by day-to-day tasks. Also, different divisions at Oracle can be quite different. Choose one that works for you.
