Oracle

Flexible work schedule and understanding of having kids.

In the Support Organization. The best clients.

On-Call (Not enough staff to support an On-call, so some people are on call all year).

Haven't been given decent raises or promotions since Neal Patterson passed away.

You have to find another job that pays more to force them to promote and give raises.

Now that we are with Oracle, it is even worse.

More for Execs. Communicate. And know your audience when giving a town hall. There is such a disconnect. You have senior associates who have been here for 15+ years talk to us, and we will tell you what is wrong. We will tell you why the change you are making will or won't work because we already did it that way, and it didn't work. And guess what? It isn't working, and you see it in the numbers, but can tell you what will help to improve it.

Hire more staff to support our clients. Have actual training people who do it full time for the organization for the product areas, instead of forcing already overworked staff who are trying to resolve tickets and do not have time to train.

We used to have all of this, and why it was dissolved, I do not know. Bring back lab training simulations so they get hands-on training with the solution when they start for Consulting, Upgrade Center, and Support Orgs. Especially for BLR associates.
