Not a good place to work
Software Development Manager • Former Employee
Redwood City, California, United States
June 25, 2008
Pros: Oracle is a big company. If you have a godparent to take care of you, your promotion and benefits will be reasonable.
Cons: Oracle has some of the worst managers who can do anything they want. HR is mute; they never do anything for the employees unless there is a chance of getting sued.
A senior manager's salary and benefits are equivalent to an application engineer's salary in the industry. Bonus can be 3-5%, and stock options at a senior level can be pathetically low or nil. Oracle is not interested in taking care of its employees, especially in the US.
Not a single employee in the Applications division is happy, which is why the code quality is poor. The turnover rate in Oracle's India development center is one of the highest in the industry, close to 20%.
