Employment status: current

Good work, bad salary
Pros: 1. Very good work atmosphere.
2. Modularity of work. Once you take ownership, nobody will force changes unless you are totally on the wrong line.
3. Very good infrastructure.
4. There is a quick change in case there is any problem.
5. Access to great knowledge base.
Cons: 1. Money! Money! Money! Oracle is not competitive when it comes to salary. The start salary is good, but the recent spate of acquisitions has not left any money to be offered for a pay-hike to almost everybody.
2. The work experience is not been taken as a metric while offering renewed compensations. The new guys are worth lot, but the people already in the company are being ignored.
