Pros

Not a lot of pressure from management. We are expected to bring in business and make a certain amount of calls per week, but the calls are easily manipulated and the business can be a bluff also. The company will not fire you unless you clearly are not working and/or you behave in a way that is not HR compliant. The training in the beginning is not very useful for on the job, but it is fun and luxurious.

Kontras

You will never get a raise within the same position, and with a promotion you can only get up to 15% raise. This is a BIG problem for all of the college hires that they are bringing in, because they are stuck on a below-market-value salary for the remainder of their career at Oracle. A promotion is also very difficult to come by, despite the minimal raise you get with the added responsibilities. The company has a horrible culture of looking out for your own interests, deceiving other product lines within Oracle, and constantly competing for budget with various pillars. The CRM is non-existent and everyone uses their own spreadsheets. The company doesn't run on half the software it sells. Don't expect someone to be happy when you lower their commission and raise their quota every fiscal year.

Pros

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Kontras

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
