Pros

Oracle is still a good brand for your resume Oracle has some really effective products and continues to invest in them Oracle will pay for outside education related to your job function

Cons

Very high voluntary termination rate Huge focus on corporate administrative tasks at the expense of productivity and clients Disingenuous client billing Complete lack of respect by OMC leaders for team-members as individuals Absence of recognition and rewards for high performance Expectation of employees to work more than 40hrs without billing OT Almost zero team-building or team events Leadership all but absent - not hands on or involved at all with employees Leadership has demanded that people leaving to disclose their new employer name upon giving notice Use of negative reinforcement rather than positive reinforcement as motivation General lack of raises In the case of commission-eligible employees, bonuses have been paid up to a year late. Commission goals have been assigned in some cases AFTER the commission period was over, effectively allowing Oracle to back into the number and deciding the final commission after the fact. The discretionary bonus fund for recognizing performance has been zero for the second quarter running.

Pros

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Cons

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
