Great for resume, not the best internal communication
Pros: The best things about working for Oracle was gaining experience from a major software giant and having that experience listed on my resume.  Oracle on your resume is very impressive.  I also feel that the pay was competitive and the benefits were the best around.  Great medical insurance and if you work at HQ--a fantastic campus.
Cons: For me, the main downside of working at Oracle was the lack of cohesiveness within the company.  I felt very disconnected from other parts of the company.  I was in Development, but felt detached from other product teams that supported our product.  I feel that management in general is good, but my department was very secretive.  Communication was not the best.
