Avantages

As a remote field engineer I enjoy a wonderful work-life balance. I work from home 100% of the time and am able to have some influence over the negotiation of my schedule since I'm closer to many of my customers than I am to the inner workings of Oracle.

Inconvénients

It's definitely a large and ordered company. There is a heavy push to automate and disallow exceptions from our working process.. which is great when failing equipment goes by the book, but not always realistic in the real world. Reading between the lines it's clear that management sees little value in having hardware field support and eventually intends to push this responsibility to customers as far as is possible.

Avantages

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).

Inconvénients

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.
