Oracle Sales Engineering
Pros: Good place to work on a wide breadth of technologies.  Undergoing an exciting transformation to cloud, which is a bit rocky but opportunities will come out of it.  Stole some top talent out of AWS and Google to build cloud product so the future will be good despite current pain.  Little turnover until recently as previously market competitive salaries age, lots of very talented people remain.
Cons: Oracle is moving to flat YoY revenue and is feeling pressure to deliver bottom line growth which is causing a lot of pressure on costs.  Lots of downward pressure on income.  Cutting OT (which is about 10-20% of income).  Cutting bonuses (about 20-40% of income).   Few raises if ever unless you are promoted.
