Employment status: former

Terrible pay, but many opportunities to work from home.
Pros: At Oracle, there are a lot of opportunities to work from home - many of my colleagues would work from home 3 days a week.  This was because we were all part of project teams that spanned the globe and most of our work was done on conference calls.
I've found that subsequent employers were very impressed with Oracle being on my resume, even though I've gotten more relevant and interesting experience at smaller companies where I've had to play a larger role.
Cons: The pay here is terrible.  After two years of stellar performance, I was given a 1.25% raise, which was the maximum my manager could give to me.  There are very few opportunities to get promoted.
