Build and Release Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

Had three phone interviews with the technical recruiters and one video interview with the senior engineer.
Was also asked to send in a sample of code I had written via email, and there were questions about my team leadership experience with an example.

Good work/life balance with the option to work from home as needed (depends on your team/manager). Lots of career paths to take.Cons: As with most giant companies, certain things move slowly. I often felt the progress of my team was held back by slow and bureaucratic processes. Oracle has many awesome products, but of course, a lot of bad ones which you may be forced to use even when there are much better technical alternatives.
