Pluspunten

It is better to acquire than to be acquired. The company is well managed. It is very clear what is expected of employees, decisions are clear and direction is not changed too frequently nor do directions that are clearly wrong remain unchanged after enough time has passed to confirm that directions need to be modified. People should join Oracle even if it is only to learn how a well managed company is run so they can translate that experience for use in other organizations.

Minpunten

Salary and raises low and should be higher to retain good people. Technical innovation except in integration of products is not at a high level as Oracle currently relies on acquired companies to get the products it needs to be competitive. Note that this is a management decision based on its view of the current state of the market and technology. In the past Oracle internally developed nearly all of its technologies.

Pluspunten

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).

Minpunten

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.
