You're only as good as your last fiscal quarter
Pros: There are plenty of oppritunities to make money at Oracle and those who are sucessful are well rewarded.  There are great benefits like in-office gym, frequent catered meals, and extensive training, all free of charge.
Cons: There is an unhealthy influence from management to do whatever is neccesary to "get the job done" which prevents a clear distinction between work and personal time.  This wouldn't be such a problem if they were more flexible with salespeople working from home.  The pressure on the sales staff is average most of the time, however, pressure increases exponentially during the end of fiscal quarters or due to turn-over related issues.
