Pros

Interesting field of work with a great client list. One is surrounded by very good and competent people who are dedicated to hte product and client satisfaction. The product itself is the best in class and everyone in the industry knows it.

Cons

The main downside was a fairly buggy product and a shoddy QA process although it may have improved over the past several years. Under Moss, there were some shady senior management types but he cleared them out and the company got back on track.

Pros

There are plenty of oppritunities to make money at Oracle and those who are sucessful are well rewarded. There are great benefits like in-office gym, frequent catered meals, and extensive training, all free of charge.

Cons

There is an unhealthy influence from management to do whatever is neccesary to "get the job done" which prevents a clear distinction between work and personal time. This wouldn't be such a problem if they were more flexible with salespeople working from home. The pressure on the sales staff is average most of the time, however, pressure increases exponentially during the end of fiscal quarters or due to turn-over related issues.

Pros

Oracle is a great place to settle down in. In general at least in my job, there is a lot of flexibility in the work schedule. This is mainly due to the fact that it is an international business and many of my colleagues are overseas. It doesn't make sense to work 9-5 when you have either early morning calls or late night calls with overseas or people on the other coast.

Cons

I would not recommend it as a place for a first job though. The training and people development is not as good as I have seen it. I used to be a consultant working for the big 5 and at those companies the training is top notch. I'm lucky that I got that training and development before I came to Oracle.
