I was laid off in 2017, I quickly found a new job and have been doing great. I saw the writing on the wall and skilled up. Just about every company is hiring and having trouble finding talent. It is a great time to start interviewing. You... — read more 

This is serious and only for Support but I imagine the rest of the company too based on other team’s attrition rates. They had this goofy acronym called FOCAL (or maybe it is wordplay on F*** Y’all) that is the employee compensation program. Nobody... — read more

I have not seen a layoff post here in some time, in fact, most posts are old, unanswered and created by; ex employees, HR, or the competition. All this when the number of employees is at a high level mark!

Recently a lot of good Development and Support talent has left Oracle. Why? Because they are the more knowledgeable employees and have the easiest time finding new employment. After years of no bonuses, raises or advancement they finally realized... — read more 

Oracle lacks strong leadership in the middle layers. More political plays rather than business or technology. Most directors lack Business skills, Most Consulting members lack technical skills. A big puppet show for Customers. Oracle also lacks... — read more

I was wondering how is it going with oracle PaaS and PSM as well as OCI-C. If anyone has any recent knowledge of that org?

I’ve been with a GBU for some years. What I have noticed is that as we have acquired companies, that company becomes the prettiest girl in the class. I’ve watched people land mgmt jobs (all levels) who should not only not be managing; they can’t even... — read more

It is hilarious to me that Oracle is gaining any ground on anybody simply because the culture is so anti-employee. I realize there are other companies that are the same, but not the ones that need to innovate and gain market share (or keep it) in... — read more 

How is this thing coming along?

Can anyone confirm whether OCI-C is workloads are completely shifted. Is OCI-C is dismantled or still Oracle continuing with it?

Can't rule out the possibility, but it seems to me simply unbelievable that with the existing attrition there will be cuts as well? That would be too much.

Lot of posts pointing to july 15, what’s happening?

Or is there someone who thinks Oracle is still a good company? My opinion is that it doesn't even look like the company I started working for. People no longer have the enthusiasm they had back in the day. Young talented people no longer like... — read more

to fulfil the task of making average employee age younger. This won't fix Oracle's current problem. Get ride of those toxic level2, level3 managers who have root in this company. Especially, working 5, 8, 10 years. They are toxic.

I left Oracle six months ago and I thought the biggest benefits of my decision to change jobs were higher pay and fewer layoffs. I was wrong. The biggest benefit turned out to be working in a positive work environment with non-toxic culture. I now... — read more 

Leave now, "signals" are clear.
