Great work, poor salary
Pros: The work is interesting, lots of projects to broaden your skillset & many very talented people to work with
Cons: No budgets for pay increases!  No matter if the company has one of the best years in the history or Oracle according to Hurd, many employees have not had a pay increase for years.  No budgets for salary increases.  This is the norm as opposed to out of the norm.  If you don't negotiate when you are hired, you're screwed.  Then again, you work 24x7 & there is no monetary award in recognition of that work.  Sweat shop.  If that's your thing, join Oracle.

Lastly, the path is very long for slow progression in the company.
