I am really demotivated of the slow promo pace and low pay at Microsoft. Some friend at OCI reached out to me for a move. Is OCI worth trying? How are the package, work, and career growth at OCI? I am currently working in Core Azure. So I would like to continue working on cloud technologies in future. #engineering #software #cloud
I don't know how to move OCI. Not strong enough. You can try though. Good luck!
If you enjoy building new regions 24/7, OCI is a good move.
and some folks do enjoy writing terraform 24/7 😅
Stay away from OCI. It's like Amazon, except that Oracle only vests once a year, and they're known for terminating you right before the vest because they apparently don't have the budget to give everyone their RSUs! https://andrewwatters.com/law/oracle/
We vests 25% every year.
Noone else vests just once a year.
OCI vests once a year and it’s a pain point. Push more in base than RSU. Their stock is trash anyway (finally had a huge run up recently after the entire market went up and down more than 10 times) do it for that $, and don’t settle on the team. You’ve much room to bargain
You are just a number to the guys who are 2 levels above you and they truly don’t give a f**k about you. Their concerns are where are resources needed and then they give you marching orders. It doesn’t matter whether you want to work in that area or not. It also doesn’t matter if you do your job holistically or not. The name of the game is churn out code AFAP. And even if you move super fast, your leadership might not be impressed at all. In their mind, that’s what you are hired to do. It doesn’t matter if other people don’t work as hard or there are people at other levels who don’t have your kind of impact.
I couldn't agree more on this comment
I’m at OCI. What team? It can be really good if you land on the right team, but I don’t think it’s worth the risk. There are fewer and fewer teams with good work, and leadership is just horrible. DM me if you want to stay anonymous.
Depends on team. Comp is great! But wlb is bad
If you can exceed 80% of your peers you will get promotion and stock refreshers if you end up being the rest 80% you do not get either are you confident that you can be a top performer?
Seems like it was 90% this focal 😞
that’s just sad
