Pros

Can do innovative work in certain groups. Some amazing talent still works at Oracle. Some product groups are at the leading edge of technology.

Cons

Fast degenerating into a bureaucracy. Politics rules, competence is much discounted. Resembles the worst of IBM and CA at times. Management for the most part is a blend of willful ignorance and blissful incompetence. The more one sucks up the higher they progress. Is more like a retirement community where the salary is your retiral benefit.

Pros

Oracle is a large company with different ways to grow your career and steer the direction. It is the large gorilla in the database field so you can guarantee that you'll work with other companies and try to duplicate what they are doing or later see that company absorbed by Oracle. The best thing is seeing new technology as many companies want to partner with Oracle to leverage their market share and capabilities.

Cons

Oracle is a very competitive company, from the inside. Different groups will compete to develop similar projects using various programming methods. YOu can argue whether this is productive or counterproductive.
