Oracle

• Good work-life balance.
• Excellent branding.
• Excellent US counterpart (technical).
• Luckily, my manager is a very good person (technically and at understanding team concerns), but he is helpless because the problem is from very senior management.

• Not the real "Oracle" culture these days. Culture from various acquired companies exists.

• No salary hikes for the last 3 years.

• Work culture is getting worse day by day.

• Careless HR.

• Working for a non-revenue generating team at Oracle is the biggest sin anyone can commit. However, while joining, they promise many things and show you a virtual paradise.

• The interview process is so tough as if they are hiring you for system programming.

• Answer from a Senior VP when asked for any plans for a salary hike: "Feel lucky that you people weren't laid off."

You can make someone wake who is sleeping, and not someone who is acting like they are sleeping.
