Pros

I worked there as an Oracle consultant for 2 years. It's a good environment; people are friendly and knowledgeable. I was able to design and develop a lot of new code to improve their system. My efforts were appreciated and supported by my immediate team (Database Engineering) and by a team of Java developers who used my code.

Cons

It takes a lot of time to get something done by infrastructure teams: get access to Unix servers, get space added, or change database parameters. The relationship between SysAdmin and DBA teams is not clear, and it seems the relationship is not clear to the respective team members themselves.
