I recently got offer from oracle bare metal cloud. I heard both positives and negatives regarding culture and other stuff. Is baremetal cloud really good opportunity???
I got an offer from them too. I ended up with Facebook but Oracle were more than competitive towards $$$ and I absolutely loved all folks who interviewed me.
How long did it take for them to give you an offer after final interview? I heard they're having a budget issue recently.
More heads are opening in couple of months.
Can you share interview experience? How many design\coding questions?
Compared to FB and Google Oracle BMC gave me the hardest coding questions by far. All leetcode hards. OTOH their System Design question was very easy. Scale was so low it was solvable with traditional three tier. The behavioral part was impressive (all interviews had it). Most of my interviewers were experienced managers and asked good follow up questions and were able to poke for B.S.
Oracle is not a great place to be and is far from a top competitor in the cloud space today. Bare Metal Cloud is a niche need at best. The problems it's meant to solve with public cloud solutions have already been solved by public cloud providers. Would strongly advise against it.
What are the numbers? I was interested too. If you can say of course
IC3 260k total comp
Dint you negotiate well??
