I want to work at Oracle as my dad worked there until the mid-2000s. Dad says it's an awesome place with awesome tech talent so I was hoping to get a job there.

Well, with the 250 or so people laid off this past week, oracle has now passed the 25,000 mark. The total since 6/1/2016 is now 25,166. Keep looking there is no future at O!

The amount of tech talent that has walked out the door in the last 2 or 3 months is boggling. It truly is. Oracle really did a number on Dyn. For the "wait and see" crowd of engineers they waited and saw, and what they saw was not something they felt... — read more 

Your straw has been drawn and the axe will start falling soon. That is all.

This is why execs act like callous jerks and ghouls right after a layoff in their organizations. They want people to quit. Low morale saves the company money when the goal is to downsize.

About 10-15 people laid off this past week in the GBUs, that brings the total since 6/1-2016 to 24,866. With MH gone and OOW over, changes may well be in the making. Job market still going strong, don’t slack off, keep looking.

Looks like LE has up to 5 people in mind to replace MH, including a very cloudy dude and an apps oldtimer - both absolutely dreadful candidates to be CEOs but then again the oracle bench is so think LE is now sc-aping the rust of a barrel that’s... — read more

I think that simply cutting jobs isn't the answer. To be successful, companies need to change how the business is operated.

O is going the way of GE. Slooooooow death. 130,000 + employees, you kidding me. A company this size? What world is LE living in

ODC: Oracle Data Cloud Good luck everyone, it will be a big one. Heard this from an exec friend. I’ve also just been asked to come into the office on Monday by my manager.

I’m a troll i’ll be honest on that but here’s the thing, how about making EM the CEO after LE buyS TSLA. It is quite possible that he may change thing around.
