Oracle USA Inc. Employer Reviews

Oracle has great benefits but part of management culture can be challenging.

Great company. Has a 24 hour full gym, with personal trainers available. There is a cafe with fresh food. Free soda, cola, drinks available.

Growing company however processes not in place
Should focus more on growing the APAC region

A typical day is not the same as the previous day. Managers travel 70% of the time, and employee must be independent and self-starter. Employee must be proactive and able to make decisions with best interests of organization in mind. Accustomed to working in a virtual environment; dotted-line managers office outside of Dallas Metroplex. Excellent communication – more...  skills required to ensure nothing "slips through the cracks". – less

very political and without a soul. Great to get on your resume if newly out of college. I was part of an acquired company and they slowly but surely will put Oracle people in your place. They take micromanagement to a new level. They are in love with process and care more about that then helping the customer. The Oracle arrogance is alive and well.

Oracle has always been my 1st love :) the best place I have ever worked at !

Requires work related travel trips. Multiple client exposure.

Best of breed networking products. Definite separation of cultures between French owned company and US strategy.

Oracle was a good place to work back in the 1990's.

They like all companies used the dot-com bust, and 2001 terrorist attacks as an excuse to freeze wages, and shift the wealth from individual contributors to executive management - the money was there, it was just redistributed out of the hands of employees.

Over the years, Oracle has gotten progressively – more...  worse - with every acquisition comes new 'talent' dedicated to establishing a non-existent 'career' at Oracle, and clawing their way up the ladder. They will mindlessly do anything executive management (the bunch of yes men that are afraid of their bosses) tells them to do.

It's infrastructure is falling apart, because the executive management is too cheap to invest in new equipment, or develop new processes that facilitate a productive environment. Managers have no training, the diverse work force is so diverse it's impossible to effectively communicate.

Careers at Oracle are an endless chain of bringing people in, chewing them up until there is nothing left of their personal, or professional lives, then spitting them out to crash and burn with a complete lack of conscience. – less

Oracle remains one of the top rated companies in the US, providing up to date software applications worldwide

To be quick about it, Oracle is a massive and successful organization. Larry Ellison's personality and character trickles down to every crevice of the company. If you are motivated by 1) Money 2) Recognition and 3) Money, this might be the best place for you. For me, I'm motivated by satisfying customers, solving new problems, and overcoming difficult – more...  challenges. If you're looking for the work itself to be rewarding instead of simply the reward, I would not recommend Oracle to you. – less

As a contractor for the support sales organization, I have received excellent training, competitive salary, and a friendly environment to success.

Very happy to have had my contract extended multiple times.

I was ramping up to be an excellent performer and subject matter expert. In my opinion, I was much better than many of my peers. However, I was aligned to a sales team who did not know how to utilize me until it was too late.

Corporate culture focused on growth both on an individual level and enterprise level.

If you do not mind travel, Oracle Consulting is the place to be.

I enjoyed working for Oracle because it was monetaially beneficial

Good company in every respect. Learned how to communicate in non-technical lingo to clients. Hardest part was traveling 6 days a week but overall it great to learn new technologies.

Challenging and fast-paced. Lot of guidance and reviews. Career growth is great

Overall a decent place to work, though communications between management & the front line is sometimes EXTREMELY challenging and one way (up, not down). Must be able to work well autonomously or you won't survive.

Very structured and enjoyable experience to work for Oracle.
