Working for Oracle is a mixed bag
Pros: Ability to be involved with the latest technology and having the status of working for a large and fairly well respected technology company.   Flexibility to work from home and not a lot of micro-management.  The health benefits are also very good.
Cons: Overall, morale is pretty low due to the fact that raises and bonuses across the board are almost non-existent.  People always complain to each other under their breath, even though they put on a smile in front of management.  The only way to get a raise is to quit and re-negotiate when you come back.  You might get a .7-1% raise every 3-4 years, if you are lucky or someone quits above you and you can take their job.

The people that stay tend do do so because they really like what they are doing, even if they won't get any real financial rewards, because promotions are also something that are EXTREMELY rare unless it is to fill a position that someone left.
