Oracle

• You will get good work and learning experience.
• You will get an opportunity to work on challenging tasks.
• Good work-life balance and flexible timings.
• Medical insurance policy for employees.
• Major product release party once a year.
• Quarterly employee awards (certificate) for motivating employees.
• You get 15 paid leaves + 10 (sick + casual leaves) in a year.
• Good brand value in the market if planning to do higher studies.

• Ratings are not related to hikes (an outstanding rating may not get any hike).
• No change in compensation or salary structure on promotion, no market correction, no hike for three to four years.
• HR is not aware of most Oracle policies and is not able to help people.
• No onsite opportunities for employees, only a few for upper management (based on actual salary), with no benefits.
• Senior management does not provide a platform to discuss employee issues.
• Hiring is driven by money, not by talent; they prefer to hire a low-cost resource instead of one with the required skill set.
• Onshore resources are treated well and heard, but not offshore resources.
• Huge discrepancies in salaries of employees at the same level.
• Higher studies/paid trainings for freshers are not approved easily. You have to be in a managerial role to justify the sponsorship of an MBA course.

Compensation of employees should be corrected to deal with inflation.

Product strategy should be robust to capture the market.

More interactions should be made with employees to discuss their issues.
