A hard place to stay
Pros: very talented people on many levels.  good benefits.
Cons: centralized top-down management with high degree of politics and in-fighting.  getting a budget is meaningless, almost all decisions are reviewed by every level of management to CEO.  Red tape.  Lots of enemies on the outside.  Engineers are prevented from trying non-Oracle innovative technology.
