Thread regarding Oracle Corp. layoffs

Layoff or Ghosted?

Hello!

I recently finished my final round of interviews at Oracle, and the recruiter gave me a soft offer to let me know one was coming. But, since the layoff I saw on the news, I haven't heard back from either the hiring manager or the recruiter. It's been about a month, and I'm worried the whole team may have been wiped out. How should I go about finding out what to do next? Could they honor my offer in another department?

Work for MANGO to get serious money. The pay is between 500k and 1.2 millions for new stem college grads. Don't miss out! ;0);0);0);0);0) Dont' work for O, the pay is low. You are expected to work 24 by 7 becuase you will be an exempt employee. Go look up exempt employee if you don't know what that is ;0);0);0);0);0)

@dn When jobs are few and far between, being picky might not be a good idea.

@cc The approval process at O has long been onerous, requiring a long chain of approvals all the way to the top. Somehow that didn't stop tens of thousands from getting offers. But they had to be patient.

@cc Its a job. Most companies are becoming horrible places to work. Go read the Nike posts on this site. They might actually be a worse place to work than Oracle.

@OP think of it as a blessing in disguise.

Why, why, why would you ever consider this company. Approvals take forever for a new hire, and actually go to the EVP level aka M8 and higher. You should look elsewhere and run away from this company.

You could contact the recruiter or hiring manager instead of posting here.

May be the team you got interviewed for could be already Riffed too.

I heard that all positions in our region were frozen by the direction of HQ

I recommend to confirm with HR and find another if they give you specific dates
