OK place to work.
Principal Consultant / Architect (Former Employee) – Herndon, VA – May 19, 2017
Bad management. Good work life balance. No growth unless you switch jobs. Compensation is good. Recently seems to be caught up in Cloud Frenzy, trying to catch up.
Pros
Work life balance
Cons
No career growth
Low Pay
Technical Support Engineer (Former Employee) – Deerfield, IL – May 20, 2018
Oracle CPQ Cloud customer support group do not appreciate their employees and drive them away. It's a revolving door which almost seems intentional to avoid any raises. Oracle does not get what retention means.
Pros
Knowledgeable and collaborative coworkers.
Cons
Below market pay, little actual career advancement.

Pros
Free drink
sales environment
Application Sales Manager (Former Employee) – Southeast – May 17, 2018
very high=pressure sales environment with little autonomy to make decisions in my territory. too many approvals needed to make a deal. and now I am just writing some words so that the system will allow me to progress
Pros
big company benefits
Cons
too much bureaucracy
Independent Work Environment
Publication and Hosting Associate (Former Employee) – Redwood Shores, CA – May 17, 2018
The good thing about my job was that managers do not micromanage. The hardest part of the job was that most managers work from home so as a new hire it is difficult especially to getting consistent training as the training period is broken up.
Excellent people and great work/life balance
Executive Assistant (Former Employee) – Minneapolis, MN – May 15, 2018
I enjoyed working at Oracle. The people were great. The company had clearly defined work/life balance and excellent benefits. The team had clearly defined goals.
Pros
Great people, benefits
Cons
internal processes were sometimes frustrating, work space was dismal but may have been updated since
Great start to a career
Business Development Representative (Current Employee) – Burlington, MA – May 14, 2018
Oracle is a great start to a sales career. Their training is top notch, and the skills acquired here will be carried for a long time. The most valuable thing to take from this job is the ability to communicate effectively and professionally with C-suite executives.
Work life balance
Project Accounting Manager (Former Employee) – Bangalore Urban, Karnataka – May 14, 2018
Flexible, Best Exposure to Financial Services, Single Domain - Banking and Finance, Lot of Training (Technical, Functional and Behavioral), Employee Friendly Policies
Oracle
Senior Sales Manager - Global Sales-Java (Former Employee) – Chicago, IL – May 12, 2018
Decent compensation - Weak Culture - Complicated Quote to Contract process. The overall experience is neutral. The hardest part is learning the backend process and protocol to complete an order.
Good Workplace
Managed Cloud Service Delivery Manager (Current Employee) – Tennessee – May 11, 2018
Good Workplace, management is decent, bad pay master....extremely good learning....raise is every 2 years which is not good at all....old school company...its all about standards & guidelines
Blessed to work here
Application Sales Executive - Florida (Current Employee) – Austin, TX – May 11, 2018
If you know how hard it is to get a job, this place is the best you can get. They are committed to the people they hire and their new campus is very nice. Never felt like we weren't paid attention to.
They hire through acquisition and outsource to cheaper locations
IT Systems Administrator (Former Employee) – San Francisco, CA – May 10, 2018
Working in IT for Oracle in the Bay Area likely means you were acquired or have been there 20 years (or both). New jobs are usually sourced in India or on the east coast where people are cheaper. Advancement is unlikely unless someone retires (and then it's more likely they will eliminate the position and roll that team under an existing manager).
It is generally stable and typically allows a good work life balance, but don't expect to ever get a raise.

Oracle is a big demanding place, but generally good.
IT Senior Manager (Former Employee) – Minneapolis, MN – May 9, 2018
Oracle is a place with lots of smart people. One needs to pay attention to do well there. But it is possible to succeed and thrive. I left there in good standing and now wish I had not left there as grass in not always greener at other places.
Productive look into how a company organizes its success
Intern/Mentee (Former Employee) – Austin, TX – May 8, 2018
I found this internship at the end of my senior year of high school. I was tasked with going through some training that delved into microprocessors design and testing. Although I was there for a short while, colleagues were quick to help and share their talent and knowledge with me. I felt respected and honored to be there, frankly, and I would not hesitate to go back if I were hired.
A strong company with corporate focus
Services Account Manager (Current Employee) – Reston, VA – May 8, 2018
Oracle is a very large, diverse company with many organizations. Whether you like it will depend on your goals and corporate cultural preferences. Oracle is very process driven and self reliant in learning and problem resolution. In my role I love to work with my accounts directly, understand their issues and work to a mutual satisfaction for both entities. However, the role is very administrative and much time is spent on searching for assistance online and through forums and self help sites, which can be very time consuming. First line managers are helpful and willing to engage. Peers are also eager to assist and brainstorm if necessary. In my role annual goals are capped and difficult to exceed.
Pros
good benefits/flexible work life balance
Cons
process and policy driven
Great while it lasted
Senior Project Manager (Former Employee) – Redwood City, CA – May 7, 2018
Oracle has a flexible working philosophy which is supposed to help with a work/life balance. This only works if your management is fair and accommodating.
Pros
Healthy benefits package including unlimited time off
Cons
Salary, being expected to constantly work unpaid overtime.
Great technology, execution of long-term strategy a work in progress
Account Manager, Platform & Architecture (Current Employee) – Dallas, TX – May 7, 2018
Great legacy technology. Good front line managers. Still formulating and executing on future strategy. Great breadth of technology offerings on premise, Cloud still growing.
Pros
Breadth of solutions
Cons
Maturing as Cloud company, low agility internally and externally
Overall great company, but CSM role was just not for me.
Customer Success Manager (Current Employee) – Austin, TX – May 6, 2018
no advancement for customer success role. not enough help/training for new people. I had a MIS degree and ended up in a wrong role.
the following role requires constantly talking with customer which is not for me.
