I am currently in negotiations with OCI and was told that they would like to have me on the team 3 weeks ago, but am now being told that there is a temporary hiring freeze. Can someone at OCI or waiting to join confirm this?
Same scenario with me! They fast tracked the process till onsite and then went radio silence on offer after Hm told me that the loop was positive. He keeps saying that they are still waiting from HR on offer numbers. Also heard that OCI disbanded entire dev team in India which was started last year with so much fanfare.
Do you know when this team was disbanded and why
Few months back.
Whats OCI?
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
They are probably getting reorged
Thanks for the reply did you hear that from someone on OCI?
Same boat. Waiting for offer letter. It’s been a month since I verbally said yes. OP where did you hear about the freeze ?
Heard it from a contact who recently moved there
What level and package.i notice they have been low balling lately
That's a good point, will definitely share.
Had a chat with one of ex Senior Directors in India. Concerned how much focus OCI would actually be.
That doesn't sound good, could you please share some details as to why, was he on the same team that got disbanded
He felt that oracle decided not to invest in OCI teams and disbanded them. After 10+ years with Oracle, he quit.
Yep, in same position. 😔
Their end of fiscal year was 5/31 so I'm expecting there are some lags with HR and across the business as a whole because of that, but I have also been waiting quite some time for an offer after a positive on site :\
They are very slow. Early signs to stay away
I see you worked at Oracle prior to Msft. Did you work at OCI and why do you say stay away?
Why join OCI ? It's most stupid place
They pay a lot of money.
Dude Facebook google Netflix so many others pay lot more. Study leet code and design well
