Pros of working at Oracle

Great training, the ability to grow and change positions

Cons of working at Oracle

Oracle is great but have so many employees for each position you may end up doing a lot of one thing. Ex: Only working on antivirus, imaging, pulling cable, Windows Servers, etc. I loved it and the people on my team.

Oracle benefits

Gym, free drinks, soup, espresso. Each building had a restaurant.

What do you like best about Oracle's CEO and the leadership team?

My boss and his had an effortless way of talking with you to determine priorities.

How would you improve Oracle's culture?

My team and I were always pushing hard to get as much done as possible. We called it working in the "red line". Since we always made our deadlines (with high quality) it might have been nice to work slower.

How did you prepare for the Oracle interview?

Talked with other Oracle employees, discussed the position, and actually played basketball with a VP.

How does your compensation at Oracle compare to the industry average?

Within the industry it was known as fair. As a typical US job, it was above average.

What's the diversity at Oracle like?

Very diverse. People of all walk of life are welcome and represented.

Pros of working at Oracle

Oracle pays well and has good benefits. If you are able to make your organization's target numbers, the quarterly bonuses are quite generous.

Cons of working at Oracle

Oracle is a very difficult company to work for - not because its clients or products, but because of how large the organization is, how siloed, and how bureaucratic it is. Also, while it says it's a people based organization, it's decisions and how it treats people are not people based. It will always come down to the numbers.
