Oracle provides great learning opportunity. The team culture is really welcoming. Everyone is very helpful while they do not do spoon-feeding. Work-life balance is really maintained.

Internal salary hike is not annual. It will be done after 2 years or even longer. There is no real connect between the team members but mostly it's because of not being able to physically work alongside them.

It's just the dream company. Gives you perfect work life balance, great work culture, newer technologies and vast area of growth if you really try. It's a self service company which means you need to monitor your own growth, no one will follow up with you on regular basis. You can learn a lot if you want also can maintain excellent work life balance.
