Experience level: Junior

Good company, no raises or promotions
Pros: Oracle is a cool company to work for, good benefits and lots of little perks. The work/life balance is very good and you aren't asked to do too much.
Cons: They will not give you raises or promotions for doing the same job year over year, not even "merit" raises. Even if you apply for other jobs within the same department that are posted as a pay grade higher, they will only offer it to you as a lateral. I had management literally beg me to apply for a position that they needed to fill and they still tried to deny me any kind of raise even though it was more responsibility and a new position entirely.
