Okay if it's your first job.
Pros: You get to know some great people along the way. I found a lot of the Solutions Engineers to be extremely helpful, friendly, and always there for you.
You have free drinks and a nice gym with fitness classes, however, once you expand into what other companies offer (way smaller companies) it's not even that impressive.
Cons: Company culture is lacking. It seemed that every Class Of was mainly filled middle-upper class white folks and and times pretty much a sorority/frat house. Given that everyone is fresh out of college you'll realize how much they talk about Greek life to the point that is sometimes annoying. 
The job is pretty straight forward but so many things will affect your performance. Metrics will most likely come to you late (if not the last day of the quarter). This is very depending on the  side of the business you are but in Cloud this is how things roll. 

Additionally, you have NO CREDIBILITY in the marketplace and customers will rant out about how much they hate Larry and rarely want to talk to you. If you have a good territory things may be easier but only as good as the Account Manager (Rep) you're assigned and their willingness to work with you.  
I have only been given an achievement number in my first quarter in seat. I asked after that since I was applying for something internally and the managers failed to provide me with a final attainment number and asked me if I kept a record of the work so that  I could do the math. What is that? Because of that it's also extremely difficult to calculate your bonus and provide exact numbers to future employers.
There are a lot of other people calling into the same accounts as you are and if you reach out (it's not that simple to know if they're already working in a deal with them) you might get roasted over email by these other sales reps, their managers, and even directors. 
The CRM used to track your daily interactions IS REALLY BAD. I wonder why they wouldn't implement something like Salesforce but there are daily problems and bugs with it. Sometimes it has has been down for hours without being able to do anything and the support chat is almost useless all the time.
My overall experience since Oracle created a designated sales force to sell Cloud is that high-ups have failed to deliver to upper management and is having repercussions on us. They seem to try to change the game every quarter and implement new things to help boost sales and all have failed.
Venturing into other lines of businesses for promotion purposes is not straight-froward. The company wants you to be a BDC and then transition into an Account  Manager which as of 2019 has become A LOT more competitive since people used to get promoted based on time with the company and not qualifications.
