Oracle

You will learn a lot considering that you get to work crazy hours (essentially around the clock, with around-the-clock teams).

Compensation (non-existent hikes or bonuses): If you are a legacy Oracle employee, one of those lucky ones that got hired directly, then your salary is the worst. If you are coming through an acquisition, then you can stay where you are for a while. You can count the number of times any hikes were given in the last 15 years.

Options are given out on time, year after year, to the top one of each team. But the management is richly rewarded. Rings any bells?

Rules are randomly generated on the fly, and everything is discretionary, based on the manager and group.

Product development is run by engineers. There are no second opinions.

You can pretty much forget about any employee needs other than core benefits (like if you need a laptop, you can get approval from the office of the CFO; if you need a band-aid, how about getting an approval from the CEO?). Wonder how you get to maintain best margins in the industry.

Upper management using swear words is routine, and keeping employees happy is a non-existent thought. You can just buy those workers in bulk, as the people coming in are cashed out well. You keep wondering you are not one of those lucky companies to get Uncle Larry's attention. Time to think?

How about the description in pro?

Your employee treatment is going to hurt you guys sometime. It's going to just become like one of those federal offices where people come for routine pay, not for passion.
