Pros

You are working with a Product Company, they make the product, the sell the product, they support the product. This gives you unlimited product exposure. There is no limit to the training Programs one can take.

Cons

Favourism, Favourism and Favourism as long as u r good pal's with your manager's, you would go long way. No Ethics, Money Talks, the company would not want to loose a single penny on you. The day you are on bench and the quarter is bad you are out of the company. Live's in todays $$$$'s no long term investement on its employees. There are no standards followed when it comes to Promotions or Appraisals or Bonus time, it is the managers who decide. so if you are a good pal of your manager you grow.

Pros

At Oracle you receive very good industry recognition and respect from partners and others. The compensation is respectable and the health benefits are by and large excellent.

Cons

Most manages are of the Theory X variety, there is very little feedback about performance, yearly layoffs, a complete absence of career guidance and promotion is a crap shoot.

Pros

Oracle had a good training program for those not familiar with the database and application market. It was intermixed with working with existing sales people to get people up to speed quickly. The building was nice as it had a nice cafeteria and large free onsite gym to workout in.

Cons

There was no career path for sales people most people including top performers left after a while. Either you moved into management or you moved on. The sales team I worked with seemed to be a body shop with high turnover which could explain why the training was so good.
