Thread regarding Oracle Corp. layoffs

OCI Santa Clara vs Seattle

Anyone here get the feeling that the Seattle OCI folks really don't like the Santa Clara set of engineers? I'm not talking about the remaining classic teams, but the actual part of OCI teams in Santa Clara. Is it just perception due to remoteness or is there some truth here?

OCI managers are such a joke. I don’t understand how some of them are just surviving.

Just by s—ing up.

Isn't Colorado OCI located in the BRM campus? AFAIK, only NetSuite is in Boulder

OCI managers are such a joke. I don’t understand how some of them are just surviving. My manager has been telling candidates who come to onsite interviews these words, “OCI and Microsoft alliance! Where is this kind of innovation 10 years ago, OCI is already 10 years ahead of competition in cloud innovation”

One candidate literally laughed on his face while my manager was telling this. That was very funny and also embarrassing situation at same time.

There's a lot of truth in that. Basically if you're not Seattle you're not OCI for those who works there.

Why does oci Santaclara even exist? We should just close it and free up space

There's already plenty of free space at the SCA campus these days.

OCI Seattle is just another in the long line of missteps Oracle has taken to try and compete in the cloud space.

OCI management s—s. This Santaclara vs seattle thing has been going on for a while now and management doesn't really care on such things. Mostly, this happened due to some managers taking in classic people into OCI just to show up to clay that, they have been hiring candidates actively.

yes, OCI is not immune to heavy churn and layoffs.

Seems like they have been trying to spitball solutions to remain relevant and dump them if they fail or dont meet expectations.

OCI will nver go away, just many iterations to come.

It’s only a matter of time before OCI is canned. Santa Clara might go first but Seattle can’t be far behind
