Pros

as a developer you have flexible working environment, what you need is to get things done. but in this development phase you are almost on your own. and after that you have time to lean things you have interest. the workload is not that heavy. the oracle universities training is well worth attending. the internal mailing list is also helpful. it is an established development environment, QA, Support are doing their job good and cumulate a well organized knowledge database on the metalink.

Cons

the promotion and compensation system are a bit too bureaucratic. but the reviews from the rating agency think it is good at control on the expense.

Pros

They really allow/force you to taker a lot of training, take advantage of it, ride out this economic storm and then move on.

Cons

Monstrously large company, communication from people even 2-3 levels up from you is worthless. I really think they have no idea what it is that we do.

Pros

Oracle is a big company that warrants name recognition. Resources and opportunity are available for those who are hard working and love a good challenge. Good sharp, management team. Provides good training and opportunities for advancement.

Cons

It's cut-throat.. While management is sharp and focused on company objectives, there are huge issues with managing resource related issues. The environment is very much, survival of the fittest. Everyone wants to be in the limelight and management does very little to discourage internal competition and backstabbing. It's not a team oriented atmosphere.
