Can you guys tell me whether the culture is that toxic. Also read in news how the sales guys upselled the cloud offering. Seems like the stocks are going to fall big. This is Oracle cloud infra. TC 360k
Break down for the TC ?
The Oracle employees on Blind (for some reason) leave a lot to be desired and are damn near illiterate. That being said, they must be doing something right although a large portion of their software is very frustrating.
I think the negatively is overhyped. I’m very happy here, have smart coworkers and competent management. Honestly every where has it’s problems but I thought Salesforce was worse
Why do you say you thought Salesforce was worse?
Thanks for saying that. I am looking for good culture and smart colleagues
Dude chill. Don’t pay attention to nay sayers.
I like it
I watched their video today on the products home page. It sounds like Oracle is trying to move the current on prem products that companies buy from Oracle to Cloud than compete with AWS. What do you think about their pricing? I am new to this area.
You sign up for their cloud and they will suck your bank account dry.
So is pricing their barrier? Or is it that they charge extra for every little service they provide?
I am interviewing and trying to leave. Had enough of Oracle. Personally, my team is not the greatest. Not as much smart engineers as other places I worked at. The only thing I really like about Oracle is the WLB. It’s too slow even. There were times when I was bored to death at work.
What is your TC and level? Are the senior level people busy and doing good work?
I am IC4. My base salary is $136k. No cash bonuses. Didn’t get any RSUs the last 2 years despite given a very good appraisal (exceeds expectations). According to my manager they were instructed to give the small pool they have to junior engineers.
OCI doesn't seem to hire other than from Amazon and MS, so employees who aren't in OCI won't know. Many IC4 TCs are 1/3 of your offer.
Thats good news for OCI in general. In future, if this doesn't go anywhere under Oracle and is spinned off as a separate company with Oracle as a major share holder, then OCI will be filled with talent to innovate and be shielded from Oracle's reputation.
In your dream
Too low for more than 4 yoe.
I have 10 years experience
Someone made it 2 levels above there with less yoe than you.
