Experience level: Confirmed

Fantastic opportunities, but hierarchy-obsessed
Pros: Oracle is a huge and diverse company, and works at quite a pace for a  multinational employing more than 130,000 people. The job variety is excellent, and the "can-do" attitude that pervades the company allows you to actually achieve what you set out to do.
Cons: Quite elitist in terms of the decision-making (and remuneration); sometimes job titles, status and levels are a matter of disproportionate focus. A lot of senior people have been in situ for years - in some case more than a decade - and are under no pressure to rotate onwards, which means progression can be slow.
