Oracle

Work with average people, so you can become a hero if you have some normal (not extraordinary) talent.

Work-life balance is good, but I think that's an individual perception. If you can manage your workload, you can have good work/life balance in any company.

No raise. No bonus. No stocks. Salary is below market average, really below. Managers are there just to fill positions but not adding any value to the product. They will promote you but won't give you a raise of a dime. Managers feel proud to say, "In Oracle, promotion is not tied to the raise."

Hire smart people. But wait, they are not smart if they join for less than market salary.

Don't say that promotion doesn't need to be tied up with a raise. That is ridiculously stupid.
