This is sales, not consulting. Please read carefully below.
Pros: - You’ll make some great people (mostly young people in the Class Of program)

- The managers, for the most part, are lenient

- Low pressure, great work-life balance (you never work weekends or late)

- Some work-from-home Fridays

- After a year, there is a possibility to move internally within Oracle, like in Finance, Marketing, etc.
Cons: - It’s sales, but not in a closing role - you’re going to learn little that is applicable, even from a sales perspective

- Your territory and product really are the biggest indicator of your success here

- Managers can be too complacent and seem to not care about the job themselves, aside from hitting quota numbers

- Training is tedious, repetitive, and not applicable to anything you do. The hours put in training are essentially a waste.

- The Oracle sales organization is unstable at best, almost a change every single quarter
