Heading in the Wrong Direction
Pros: Oracle has a great product footprint. Employees typically have the opportunity to directly contribute to the company's success. Flexible hours and remote work are very prevalent and typically managers are results-oriented.
Cons: As the lust to cut costs have taken hold after upper level management changes over the past couple of years, there has been a rise of fear-based management. Cost reductions appear to be more valuable than experience, innovation, and visionary thinking. Growth means hiring freshers to bolster the sales force. This is a recipe for disaster. There is very little profit sharing, even at teh NP level.
