Pros
Company that very thoroughly checks their balance sheets and knows how to wiesly invest their money for preservation and growth. They have strong history of making strategically sound acquistions which allow them to expand to new markets. They offer comprehensive benefits including stock options and bonus for salaried employees. Hourly workers get handsome overtime compensation for their extra hours. 401k matching for everyone. Standard offerings for dental, eye and healthcare. Most positions have some flexibility to work from home periodically. Most of their locations boast gourmet cafeteria and world-class fitness facilities.
Cons
New Employees through acquisition get fulltime postions but are NOT informed whether their new position is "transitional" (ie temp). If employeed here via acquisition, Generally a good idea to look for work while being employeed here rather than settle in and buy that new car you always wanted. There's no barometer for when reductions in force are made. They will be done quietly and quickly. Some departments are total sweat shops particularly those that are considered cost centers. Oracle loves to follow any hip new trend in 'in-sourcing' to bring in cheaper talent and save where possible. They are very excited about their expansions in Mexico and overseas.
