Pros

Working in Malaga, nice weather, good beaches.

Cons

Total micro management, they use inside sales as business development and to make up for the lack in marketing. Add to this the new ver suspicious compensation rules, and the yearly rotation of territories meaning that global finance can alway dispute you compensation, and you may find yourself working on deals that you will not be paid for. Add the this the micromanagement of Sales Managers that do everything to hang on to their desks, and are really only there for reporting .In the age of startups and collaborative companies this is really a monolith from the early 90's. WARNING: there is a very high turnover of sales reps, and most are only waiting for their relocation packages ( 1.5 years) condition to run out before they resign so they don't have to pay it back. Wondered why Orcale is always hiring ? ... now you know.

Pros

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Cons

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
