Avantages

At Oracle, there are a lot of opportunities to work from home - many of my colleagues would work from home 3 days a week. This was because we were all part of project teams that spanned the globe and most of our work was done on conference calls. I've found that subsequent employers were very impressed with Oracle being on my resume, even though I've gotten more relevant and interesting experience at smaller companies where I've had to play a larger role.

Inconvénients

The pay here is terrible. After two years of stellar performance, I was given a 1.25% raise, which was the maximum my manager could give to me. There are very few opportunities to get promoted.

Avantages

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Inconvénients

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
