Be sure of what you want before you sign on.
Pros: Listing Oracle on your resume is one of the best reasons, as the company is recognized as leading software company. Compensation is good for my role. Work schedule is flexible, as is the choice of tools and methodologies (though there is a strong preference to Oracle owned technologies, even when they are not he best). Bonuses are sometimes good.
Cons: Small salary increases is a large one. Bonuses seem to be dependent little on individual performance but rather on business unit performance. There is a strong preference to offshore development, even when it doesn't make sense due to great difficulty in finding experience, qualified candidates.
