Big Company, small atmosphere
Pros: Although Oracle is clearly huge, the sales org is broken up into smaller individual product groups, and then into account size (mid-market, up-market). So although we may have 1000 sales reps at headquarters in Redwood City, you work directly with about 50 people. Due to heavy college recruiting, it's a young atmosphere. Fairly slow paced environment as well when considering some of the very intense sales orgs in the SF Bay Area. Have the opportunity to make a lot of money, base is low but some reps will double that in commission.
Cons: There is a lot of turnover from the college hires, so it is sort of a revolving door of people. Not really a bad thing, there are just so many opportunities in this area. Base is a little low for the area average and prestigiousness of the opportunity.
