Oracle is a great place to work
Pros: 1. Interesting work - part of a world class development / sales team

2. Great place to learn new stuff - vast resources available internally

3. HQ campus is really nice, lots of space, gym is great, six cafeterias to get lunch
Cons: 1. Salaries not competitive / raises are seldom  - usually only for selected few in the team

2. Hiring people in US is almost always under 'freeze' - if someone leaves then the rest of the team just gets more work - replacement hires are seldomly approved

3. Direction of new products / aquisitions is sometimes confusing.
