Dum dum da da dum de da de dum. The veil comes off this week. Who makes the cut?

Hello, ex Sun Microsystems employee here, working in Fujitsu engineering since 2010. Posting here since I think this is more relevant to Oracle given we sell SPARC basically only in Japan. During the last year Oracle and Fujitsu worked for an highly... — read more 

The crux of it is this: oracle today is full of lackeys and sycophants who operate in a corrupt manner to maintain their own status quo. You can’t be, or become, world-class anything with that kind of team. The c-suite is mediocre and they don’t hire... — read more 

Repost from another thread. See this mentioned at times. Any other companies with the same work ethic and approach? We can start applying there.

I am interviewing for a new job at another company. I am still at Oracle. If the new company calls to do an employment check what info does Oracle give out?

No news of layoffs this past week. Total since 6/1/2016 remains at 19,445. Keep looking all, no future at old O.

It’s good 2 b gone! The grass IS greener on the other side. Come join me and the others who have escaped.

no massive layoff ever happened in Oracle, at least if you intend "massive" as at least 10% workforce wiped out in at latest the same week. I have never seen in 20 years a 10,000+ layoff in a single event at Oracle. the "biggest" layoff I have seen... — read more

On 27th of June our office had HR visit and told us kindly that they plan to get rid of us soonest. In Europe/Germany/Berlin is little longer process, it takes some time. Anyway, in our office are around 19 ppl.

Interesting.

The layoffs or small ones we talk about are on hold. Too much at stake to cause shifts in stock price. Investors and analysts are watching with an eagle eye. Sounds like they will resume mid Q2. Enjoy the update and have peace of mind it’s on hold... — read more

Why you no listen to Confucius?

This has to be the best post comment ever!

Hold on to your hats. Confucius say the big one that everyone has been waiting for is right around the corner. It's gonna be BIG, it's gonna be BAD, it's gonna be UGLY, and it's gonna be SOON.

Saw an email from someone about being laid off and Friday being their last day. Anyone know how many got affected?

So they keep saying q4 was great, but for who? I know what our teams numbers were and the bonus does not reflect that. So whose pocket did that go into? Most certainly wasn’t mine.

For those of you still worried about your job, don't be. Yes there will be continued layoffs all the time every quarter, but they all will be just under the warn notification threshold, and nothing "huge" or "massive" is coming. It will be a constant... — read more
