Pros

Established company with a lot of stability, good employee benefits. Oracle is a dominant player in its core areas despite threats from SAP and growing MySQL threat.

Cons

Not very innovative. It can be hard to change the direction of projects and many middleware projects seem doomed to fail or has very little potential for impact. Currently Oracle is hard to beat because it has many existing clients who are too lazy to switch to other products but eventually people will switch to superior products. You cannot simply fight SAP with aggressive salespeople. Too much acquisition can cause indigestion. There are many clients frustrated by the lack of integration between Oracle's products.
