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

Would be more productive if coworkers actually helped one another

Support Analyst (Current Employee) - Maryland City, MD - January 27, 2022

I wish there was more schedule flexibility without having to contact a separate department.They need more hands on training and peer to peer training before they allow new employees to support calls

Pros

Access to the building’s gym when the building was available

Cons

Call quality reviews, Lackluster training for clients, which increases calls

Long term company for career

Director (Former Employee) - San Francisco, CA - January 15, 2022

Long term company for a decent career in technology. The focus on Cloud in recent years has made the company more competitive and this flows into employees and makes us more competitive.

Pros

Good WLB, friendly peers, opportunity to learn.

Cons

Low pay, low increase, sometimes sense of lack of vision.

My team was like family but management was aloof.

Order Management Specialist (Former Employee) - Santa Clara, CA - January 14, 2022

My team was like family but management was aloof. Salary increases are very rare, same with stock grants. Managers really don't care about their people and played favorites.

Pros

Nice people

Cons

Management wasn't friendly.

Great college sales training program

BDC Representative (Former Employee) - Austin, TX - January 13, 2022

Great intensive training with similarly college students learning with you. Great place to start to gain basic sales experience but your quota/metrics change ever quarter and not paid fairly compared to your coworkers in the same org. It depends on your sales rep and manager and realty is luck of the draw as what org you end up in. However, quotas are still attainable. Good base pay w quarterly commission payments.

Growing pains from an old school tech firm trying to adapt to the modern tech world.

Consultant (Current Employee) - Texas - January 6, 2022

Oracle is a behemoth that is playing the game of maintaining a customer base instead of growing it. The culture is incredibly old minded and not on par with the culture of competitors. Compensation is also not inline with offers at competitors.

Pros

Flexible work from home option, great healthcare benefits, corporate discounts

Cons

Non-competitive pay structure, difficult to move up

Terrible support system

Director (Former Employee) - United States - December 14, 2021

You will never feel valued and will get very poor raises if any. The company does not care about the customers or working together as a team. Every internal communication is someone trying to force you to do something.

Pros

Plenty of time to do your own tasks during work hours

Cons

no raises and no support

Business Development Intern - 2022

No Growth no Raise

Contract Administrator 2-Centralized Workflow Team (Current Employee) - San Antonio, TX - December 13, 2021

Good entry level job, but no growth at all. New hires get paid more than experience. Management tells us to find another job we ask for a raise. Morale is low, and management does not care.

Pros

benefits

Cons

Rare cases of raise, self service, no growth

It was a job.

Financial Analyst (Former Employee) - San Antonio, TX - December 13, 2021

My immediate manager was great, but it is a billion dollar company. It was difficult to stand out and get promoted. Promotions/pay raises were based on your time at the company.

Challenging culture with lack of collaboration across business units; toxic at times.

Account Manager - Digital Experience (Former Employee) - Bloomington, MN - December 9, 2021

Great technology and solutions doesn't always equate to a positive work experience or career move. Oracle is a solid proof point for that as the lack of strategic alignment led to losing business many times.

Pros

Good training tools - innovative technology solutions.

Cons

Internal conflicts and competition for share of wallet at accounts hinders success.

WFH since before the pandemic, flexible with time, good benefits

Principal Technical Writer (Current Employee) - Santa Clara, CA - December 7, 2021

Oracle could be a great company if they wanted to. We've been working for home for years, benefits are good, compensation is OK. This year they even gave us raises and bonus.Currently it's too developer centric and the way they manage their products can be a bit stressful.People stay because of their flexibility with time and working from home. No questions asked as long as you do your work and are available for scheduled meetings.

Pros

good benefits, Wfh, flexible

Cons

stressful, sometimes outdated

Good work/life balance

Business Analyst, Operations (Former Employee) - Remote - November 9, 2021

I was lucky to have good direct management in a decent part of the company. Having been onboarded as part of an acquisition and working remote, I never felt like part of the company. Pay and benefits were decent for the job I was doing and I had a great deal of flexibility to manage my own time and workload.Unfortunately Oracle is constantly reviewing headcount and another RIF is always around the corner.
