Sales Consultant
Pros: Obviously, Oracle has an amazing technology portfolio. That is a HUGE plus. If you like tech, especially databases like me, you will feel like a kid in a candy shop. 
The Sales Consulting organization is a positive place to work. Team mates collaborate and cooperate. There is amazing support from Product Management and even though the company is very large, it feels much smaller and you can talk with and suggest new features to product development.
Cons: My immediate management is wonderful and very supportive. Sadly, the upper management is not. Prior to the arrival of Mark Hurd, the compensation and benefits were tolerable. They don't pay top dollar simply because I guess they feel that they are who they are and therefore don't have to. Since Mark Hurd has arrived, things have steadily gone down hill. Perks have been taken away and I'm they have reduced my salary. After between 5-10 years with the company, I'm now making LESS than the day I got hired. There are no raises either. I love it there but can't afford to stay any longer than I have to.
