Company: Oracle
Date: 2017-08-29
Overall rating: 3/5
Employment status: former
Experience level: Senior

Great people w/a lot of talent, however, brutally cold company
Pros: Great talented intelligent coworkers to learn from, plenty of personal growth initially.  If you’re in the right department you can have some fantastic travel opptys.  Benefits are great, good work/life balance if you’re able to work remotely and have a good manager. Overall it's a good company as long as you understand they have ZERO loyalty and today can be your last day regardless of your stats.
Cons: Often little or no advancement within, a great majority of Oracle employees don’t grow their careers until they leave Oracle.  Senior management changes direction frequently and in doing so they discard highly productive loyal employees at the drop of a hat - they have no regard for you once they’re “done with you”.  I’ve worked for multiple departments and carried out many job functions while working 16 years there and no matter how great you are or how well you perform you know it’s only a matter of time until somebody makes decision to end your Oracle career and it’s almost always an executive who has no idea what you actually bring to the company.
