Beware!
Pros: Oracle benefits are pretty good relatively to other companies.  Gym is excellent with heated outdoor swimming pool and towels.  The gym is cleaner than most commercial ones.  The cafeteria food is better than average.  Relocation benefits are excellent.  If you don't have a degree, I believe Oracle pays for you degree if you can get it approved somehow.
Cons: Management treats the engineers like disposable workers.  The work is boring.  The environment is very political.  Oracle also tend to layoff its own workers in favor of the workers gained from large acquisitions.  At least that was the case with Peoplesoft acquisition.
