Pros

Oracle acquired my product many years ago. A couple years after that, the innovation stopped, and we are just milking the install base.

Benefits are good, and the work is not taxing. I spend my afternoons surfing and mountain biking.

Cons

Fusion comes knocking to all independent products. When that happens, the endless 2-year porting projects start. They are endless because the tech stack is dictated from the executive offices, and they change their minds about every 18 months.

Advice to Management

Keep the paychecks coming. I need a new mono-shock for my bike.
