Pros

The collective nature and support of the CSM's as a team, whom struggle unequipped to fulfill their roles adequately. Very little Pro's...

Cons

Non existent onboarding, very poor ongoing training, diabolical leadership with lack of customer success experience and an awful culture. The CSM role at Oracle is a delivery manager role whereby your time is spent entirely internally escalating issues on behalf of your customers that all trust from the customer is lost so strategic planning with them never happens. Non-ownership is rife (including within management) so that CSM's fulfill more roles than they should. Very high turnover of staff. A truly awful experience working at Oracle as a CSM, which I wouldn't recommend.

Pros

Very cushy at times, not super high pressure

Cons

The actual software you're selling is low to mid tier software so hard to sell.

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.
