Cloud, Cloud, Cloud...
Pros: Very good company to work for. As a Salesperson, you will learn a lot. The company is switching all its departments to Cloud and some nice sales positions are being created like “Territory Manager”.  Don’t expect to go there “on holidays” because work is taugh. This is not AWS where the Cloud sells itself. You will probably start a Territory from scratch and will fight over Oracle’s bad reputation on the markets. This is the “School of Sales” where “You cannot “not learn”! ...is of course you put the amount of effort and energy into the battle. And it’s worth because you can get a decent salary in a place where the cost of life is pretty cheap and where you get 8 months of summer / year.
Cons: High pressured environment and sometimes very poor management
