I believe I did a mistake of selecting Amazon over Oracle BMC. Had offers from both, said no to BmC. I am not sure if I can approach Oracle again to consider me by accepting that my choice was wrong and Oracle was an awesome prospect.
You can reach out and try and don't listen to Oppp
Oracle IS a piece of shit company, but it will look fine on your resume.
I think you did a good choice man! Trust me when I say this, there's nothing much to really learn when a company has established products and they just want you to polish them and add colors here and there. Once you join Oracle you will be guaranteed the following : you will NEVER ever get a hike. You will NEVER ever get a bonus. You will be stuck in the same role for 5+ years and if you happen to have a promotion it's not guaranteed that your salary will increase. Eventually freshers will be hired at more salary than you and you will feel bad about that and can't do anything about it. Amazon is definitely a better choice than Oracle.
Don't know man. Joined on base 140k total comp 190k. After 2.5 years 180k base promoted once total comp 350k. Don't trust me? Here is proof. This is my rsu vesting for next few years. I like this shitty company. Correction with current stock it's 360k+. Larry won't take bonus until stock goes to 80. I will make half a mil then. Suck it biyatch
Yes may be you are an outlier. But this doesn't usually happen at Oracle. This is from my experience of working for 5 years in that company across multiple teams in USA as well as abroad.
Go to Oracle cloud
What is BmC ?
Oracle Bare Metal Cloud. I am not talking about Bay area Oracle. i let go the opportunity to work in Oracle Cloud ..
Oracle is Oracle throughout the world. It will act is the same way and never ever care for its employees wherever you join. And once you have rejected an offer you can't get it back because in order to do that it has to go through creating a new requisition and have 12 levels of approval going to Larry Ellison as the final approver. That's not happening in a life time. Feel good about the fact that you didn't spoil your career by joining it. Stay blessed!
Suspected but wasn't sure. If you are in amazon cloud/AWS dont worry about it. I'm in the cloud space and work with many clients...oracle never comes up... I don't know how BMC was formed - organic or M&A, traditional oracle is very political culture as well.
Oracle used to be a big name that people wanted to work for 20 years ago. Now they have Mark Hurd (aka Sex & the CEO) and Safra Catz (Combative Cat) running the show. What a lovely place to work at. I wonder what the culture is like now!
