Big name, big pain points
Pros: Wonderful team, huge brands to contribute to, great office location, awesome place to learn and be taught your craft, solid benefits, and the work life balance was good.
Cons: Every pitfall that accompanies working for such a large corporation exits here, and is exacerbated due to Oracle's sheer size. It's very hard to get a raise, your role is very rigidly defined, the bottom line will always come before employee satisfaction, and getting anything through the bureaucracy takes way too much time and projects really suffer because of it. It's the same with interviews and employment offers, the process is unbelievably slow. It's ridiculous, and I'd had enough.
