Pluspunten
-Good Benefits package -Lots of great employees that really care about their work ethic (management excluded) -Small 'team' buildings/floors on a large campus with creek, ponds and mountain views -Quite a bit of shared office space for longer term employees (not everyone in a cube) -Good learning experience to take to your next job.
Minpunten
-Inequitable pay for the same job duties/IC code, there is a $20k+/year difference in people salary doing the same job! -Raises/bonuses are non-existent, so if you've been there 1.5 years you WILL be training a new hire making $10k - $15k more a year than you are. I was constantly told "leave Oracle for at least a year and make more somewhere else, then come back and you'll make more than most managers that have stayed the whole time and been promoted." -Promotions often given to those less talented (often the complainers and 'problem children' are promoted). Even IF you get a promotion you will NOT get a raise with that promotion if you are one of the lucky one's that does get a raise at 4-7 years of employment then look forward to a whoopping 3% or less raise, Oracle doesn't keep up with the high cost of living in Bozeman -Management wants you to drink the Kool-Aid, they really don't want your ideas or suggestions, regardless of what they say to you, be forewarned if you do give suggestions consider yourself with a target on your back. -work life balance is non-existent (be prepared, at quarter ends, to work 12-16 hour days, weekends, holidays) -
