Overall rating: 3/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Senior

Powerful company where wages have been stagnant for the last 12 years for technical persons in the lower 90%.
Pros: 1. Powerful company with great access to the latest technology.
2. By IT standards the work environment is stable for technical persons
Cons: In an effort to have US based ORCL employees compete with ORCL employees in "low cost centers" wages have been frozen for the last 12 years for the lowest performing 90% of the technical employee population.

(CON) That's hard for us techies like myself (a top 20% technical performer) who suffer with a dozen years of slowly falling standard of living.

(PRO) This austerity program has at least kept us lower 90% technicals employed.
