Overall a good experience
Marketing (Former Employee) - Bay Area - February 2, 2023
Great experiences and colleagues, learned a lot and have great news skills to take away. Grateful overall for my time there. CMO was on the right track before changes in 2022. Downsides - a lot of red tape, archaic systems and rules. Hard to get your job done and compete with such restrictions and processes that delayed projects. Made us use home-grown systems which mostly were bad. Budget very low for marketing compares to industry standard.
Pros
Colleagues, interesting and fun projects
Cons
Low budgets, red tape, old systems

Remote work and flexibility
Cloud Solutions Architect (Current Employee) - Reston, VA - February 1, 2023
It’s a great company since he has international reach, and you can see the true scale of a big company. Pros- Remote work Flexibility Learning (they cared about me getting three Certs within six months) Cons Leadership/politics hold back a lot of people and teams from getting the job done.

Too much politics
Consulting Member of Technical Staff (Former Employee) - Santa Clara, CA - January 26, 2023
Too much politics. Inefficient management. Slow pace development. Cut cost on tools which would have been very helpful to enable employee work more efficiently.

Not for everyone
System Admin 4 (Former Employee) - United States - January 25, 2023
Same culture as AWS, that says it all. Poor documentation and a tribal knowledge mentality. office politics rampant in the data centers. You get paid well, but not for the stress of the job requirements.
Pros
pay and benefits
Cons
Lots

Training and Management Terrible
Customer Support Analyst (Former Employee) - Columbia, MD - January 24, 2023
Received lackluster Training, manager made the role seem like it would be a simple troubleshoot process and send to level 2, Well level 2 makes it extremely difficult to send cases up and many of the Support Managers do not have the Support Knowledge to help new employees while on the calls, yet they want you to resolve the issues, ridiculous expectations and no sympathy or empathy towards workers struggling
Pros
Coworkers are nice, suffer together
Cons
Managers awful, terrible training, mistreat employees

Disappointing
Financial Analyst (Current Employee) - San Antonio, TX - January 24, 2023
They want you to work as if you were 2 people without paying overtime, they pay a low salary, there is no increase or promotion, people stay in the same position for years and when there is a promotion, the salary increases by 5%. They are very limited in number, they just want to hire cheap people outside the US and pay little. They are increasingly replacing American labor with cheap labor outside the US. I have never worked in such a mean place. And they don't even hide that they don't care about you at all. At Christmas, they don't even give the employees a chocolate, there's no party, fraternization, they didn't even let us go out for lunch together at Christmas (even if each one was going to pay for his own) during working hours. Zero bonuses, zero everything. horrible. I never imagined that it could be so bad to work for Oracle. The only good thing about the company is the medical insurance.
Pros
Medical, vision and dental insurances
Cons
Everything

Horrible culture. Not a great place to work
Product/Program Lead (Current Employee) - Seattle, WA - December 29, 2022
They generally don’t treat the most important assets (people) well. A few of the topmost leaders (SVP & up) have no empathy and have a cutthroat, authoritative ant autocratic approach to management. In OCI, this toxic culture is hinged from the highest levels and hinged on success at all cost which has permeated down to lower levels of leadership. Even the language and tone of communication used in meetings can be despicable at times and unprofessional at best.
Pros
None really. Perhaps the fact that it’s an old school technology company with solid expertise in DB.
Cons
Horrible Senior leadership. Horrendous culture particularly in the cloud (OCI) space

Remote working ability but be prepared to always be on the clock
Principal Quality Assurance Engineer (Former Employee) - Remote USA - December 13, 2022
No such thing as loyalty with this place. Lots of long term, high quality (i.e. high salary) employee layoffs in favor of cheap overseas labor. Long hours, no bonuses for non-sales positions, no respect for personal time, lots of benefits that made them good years ago were taken away. There are better places to spend your life at.
Pros
health benefits are good
Cons
no work/life balance, pay lower than industry, you are just an employee number

A good steady career
Director of Marketing (Former Employee) - Reston, VA - December 12, 2022
If you're looking for a place that you could reliably move up the ladder for 20+ years, this is your company. It does not move fast and it is hard to get much done. The people are nice and generally competent.

productive and fun team
Software Engineer (Former Employee) - Santa Clara, CA - December 11, 2022
Productive people, fun team with lots of smart people. However, upper management can feel lost sometimes and it was hard to get in touch with them. It also took a long time to get a feedback from upper mgmt.
