Used to be better, declining attention to employees has caused poor morale
Pros: Oracle has very good benefits like unlimited sick time, credits for paying for health, dental and life insurance.  Oracle is a strong revenue company and since hiring has been minimized over the last ten years, layoffs have been very few and far between.
Cons: Recently Oracle made all work at home employees back to the office.  After 10 years of no raises and no bonuses, work at home was the only benefit that kept many employees working at Oracle.  Morale from long term employees that structured their lifestyle around the work at home environment is at an all time low.  It is difficult to be forced back to the office when promotions, raises and even cost of living increases are non-existent.   In addition, the performance and quality of Oracle's internal tools are horrible - causing continued tension and frustration when doing your everyday job.
