Marketing Specialist - Marketing Cloud
Pros: Where you Work at Oracle (what division and team) is critical to your experience AS WELL as your manager. Some divisions are better to work for than others but it is critical you interview with your would-be manager and get a good idea what he/she is about and their expectations. One of the best things is that the benefits are some of the best I have seen in 15 years.
Cons: >A lot of "resting and vesting" - You will hear about the "80/20" real at Oracle. 20% of the people are doing 80% of the work while the other 80% are on a near permanent vacation.
>Difficult to work between departments
>Old, outdated computers/networking make it hard to keep up with more nimble companies using Saas-based working platforms
>No bonuses
>Difficult to move up unless you know the right people
