A job you can settle for
Pros: Depending on what role you have:

- work hours are flexible 
- great gym
- corporate life perks

Overall it's standard corporate job. It's stable, safe, and something you can feel comfortable in.
Cons: The biggest thing for me is compensation and lack of career growth. In the applications department specifically, there is a lack of a clear career path you can take. when I take a job, I want to know there is opportunities ahead of me and that my company cares enough to help me grow but I don't really get that here. Oracle does too much mass hiring and acquisitions to map out a formal career path. And on that note, compensation can be a little hard to negotiate. The structure isn't really set in place and isn't visible to any of the employees.
