Oracle is a good company
Pros: Oracle (like other large companies) varies somewhat by department, and the culture varies accordingly depending on the manager and history of the department.  I worked in engineering for over 13 years and had some great experiences there.  The pay and benefits were excellent, the people I worked with were generally very bright and fun.
Cons: Like all other large companies, politics can play a big part in product decisions.  The politics in Oracle are usually fairly blunt though . i.e. There is not a lot of subtlety and it is usually easy to see which way the wind is blowing.
