Pros
Working from home is fantastic. Health benefits are outstanding, good selection of plans. Tuition benefits are outstanding. Get your degree while you are here!! Larry Ellison is a tenacious visionary. I admire that he goes after and gets what he wants.
Cons
Larry Ellison has no soul. No salary increases for 5-10 years for Support employees, yet the world's 5th richest man is in charge. Not even cost of living increase. I am talking about employees who are consistently rated 4 and 5 on performance reviews. Oracle takes the cheap way out by offshoring most jobs. No support jobs are backfilled in the US. Managers have no influence over work conditions, this is all done at a much higher level where no one knows what Support does. Many layers between support and customers in order to hide problems from the upper management. "President's Cup" award consists of a hunk of acrylic with your name on it. Cannot use that to pay the mortgage. 30 year service award is worth about $600 which averages out to a little over 5 cents per day. Management believes # of cases worked is a measure of productivity vs looking at quality and complexity. Management runs innane reports to see if your 'headline' has changed on your cases.
