Pros: Oracle has amazing products and some very technically savvy system engineers. My sales skills have improved greatly in uncovering and qualifying opportunities.
Cons: Commissions are not paid on time or accurately. The accounts are not setup in the system so reps end up fighting over opportunities and deals. You have to compete internally for the customers share of wallet because Oracle will have every rep on an account calling the same customers. The customers get really upset and will not accept calls in general or return emails. The system processes are complex and time consuming for the smallest of things like getting discount approval on a deals you are working. The comp plan was extremely complex with vary rates of pay by product and also we had to compete against our outside account executives rather then work as a team. Lot's of frustrating silly ridiculous stuff to put up with.
