Current Employee – been working at Oracle full-time for more than 7 years

ProsFlexible timing is something can get you a lot of time for family by optimizing the work timings without hampering productivity
High Initial Salary. Other service based companies offer very less with same years of experience

ConsNot good for long term growth ,
No contribution from HR department , in fact not much of helpful.
Older employee do not get raise considering the fact management allocates a lot of budgets to freshers and new hires.

Advice to Senior ManagementRetain your existing employees with higher raise instead of throwing so much money on new hires and waisting 1 year , training them without productivity. Don't hire the worst candidates from top colleges (just because Google and Facebook took the best ones) , Hire the hardworking and passionate ones who are willing to learn and contribute. Most of the times new hires with irrelevant grad major comes to oracle prepares for MBA/MS in Oracle without any work and free salary , finally leaves in a year or two.
