Avantages
Oracle provides solid benefits. The work schedule is flexible but can be demanding as we work in a global community. They are also very good about allowing employees to work from home or remote locations which is at the top of my list of perks. We have the ability to work with cutting edge technologies and have the resources and economies of scale that come along with working for such a large corporation. There are so many career opportunities available at Oracle that your options are endless. Overall, Oracle provides a good working environment, flexible work schedules, and an exciting product and service offering that won't have you snoring.
Inconvénients
HR policies and practices are very dark and secretive...although benefits are solid, salary, bonuses and promotions are not handled properly leaving some disgruntled employees. Those that do not understand how to manage their own careers are often left in the dust as mentor programs are lacking. As with most large corporations, being outside of HQ makes it difficult to really climb the corporate ladder. Communication is sporadic with some real gaps as employees are often left in the dark on key initiatives decreasing morale and lack of respect for senior leadership. However, I would have little to complain about if the HR and compensation practices improved.
