Oracle

Good work-life balance.

Exposure to the latest Oracle technologies.

Working for one of the leading software companies gives employees a good reputation.

A good training ground.

A lot of pleasant people doing exciting work.

Large company prevents career growth.

Compensation is lacking.

Too much red tape on administrative processes (e.g., employee hiring, promotion processing).

Difficult for new hires to adjust because of the self-service environment.

Very corporate environment.

Environment does not promote teamwork; it's more like everybody is out for himself.

Larry looks like a ripped-off Tony Stark.

Find ways to speed up administrative processes.

Come up with uniform guidelines for promotions across the company.

Hire more visionary people and try to define product vision, i.e., focus on strategic initiatives, not tactical initiatives. In other words, do your job and let engineering do its job.
