Pros

Good people, good managers. Good place to work if you do not expect much.

Education is paid for if you stay within the business.

Cons

Upper management does not understand the lower levels. First-level management has no authority.

It used to be a very flexible work environment, but not anymore. There are no raises, bonuses, or any type of incentive.

Advice to Management

Oracle used to be THE place! I was proud to work at Oracle and told anyone who would listen what a great company it was. This has changed so much. The work-at-home policy was yanked away, and this was the #1 reason I loved this company. Upper management doesn't listen (or refuses to) to the 1st-level managers and anyone not in a management position. Take the employee survey responses to heart and make changes so that your employees once again love Oracle.
