Challenging, good pay good work life balance
Pros: Sensible work hours compared to last job -- work 50 hrs week compared to 70.  This is due to having more people supporting you with your tasks.  Next, I value working with colleagues all over the globe. I'm home assigned which works great. Manager treats as adults in that no questions asked or bother if you're professionally competent do a good job. If you go above and beyond with your work you get raises and are supported by managment.  Finally, Oracle knows how to monitize on products and sevices.  This is a plus as I have not had to deal with constant layoffs like at my previous company.
Cons: Raises amounts could be higher.  The culture differs based on where you are at.  California HQ is pretty dull, whereas the old Sun Microsystems campus in Colorado is much more interactive with brigher facilities and staff events.
