Oracle provides outstanding benefits, a comortable work environment and rewards top performers.
Pros: Great benefits.  It pays to work hard.  If you work hard enough to be in the top 10-20% of your group or organization it is almost always rewarded with a decent bonus, stock options or merit increase.  Oracle rarely has layoffs, unless of course your company was just purchased by them.  I have never feared for my job.
Cons: Depending on the project, the extra hours can start to add up quickly. Some senior management only manage up and don't pay enough attention underneath them.  The company has grown so much it can sometimes be complicated to work with other organizations.
