Pluspunten

Great benefits. Great location in Nashua NH where you avoid the Boston traffic and the Massachusetts income tax if you live in New Hampshire. Very flexible environment. You can work from home whenever you need to. There's not much stress, at least not in my team. You can move around to other groups if you want to work on something different.

Minpunten

Raises are non-existent from my experience. You can go years without a single raise, and if you do get one, it's a very small one. From what I hear, promotions are hard to get also. If you apply for an internal job, it is company policy that you cannot get a raise or a promotion (title change), so all moves within the company are lateral. Oracle is just not a fun and exciting company to work for. If you are looking for an exciting environment where you can advance in your career, this isn't the place for you. Not many young people work here, and there's a good reason for that. If you are looking for a place that is comfortable and flexible and you value that way more than money, career advancement and a fun culture, this may be the place for you.

Pluspunten

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Minpunten

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
