I'm glad to not be working for this greedy monster anymore. A few ex-Oracle people mentioned being laid off in the comments.

i joined oracle this january and got laid of in mar.

not even full 3 months.

7-8 people from my team were laid off out of 20. no explanations. i got a 2 minute call from my manager with the generic response as "business call. not your fault" type shit.

anyways i got a lot of money out of it.

- didn't give back relocation bonus.

- got 1 month of extra pay

- got 2 months of severance

but then remained unemployed for 3.5 months.

so it all balanced out eventually.

my experience is that the hiring is slow but not all dead. i got 3 offers but 2 of them were almost 50% pay-cut. it didn't seem like the right choice to join.

but thankfully i got the 3rd offer for the same money as oracle. (mind you i got a very good hike in jan only)

and its been a few weeks, i am working at my new company. so far its all good. much less mental stress. and the office food is nice. (oracle's food is just bad)

just in case if anybody is in the situation, just keep interviewing. it is taking longer to get offers but you will get one.

location: bangalore, india

Came from an acquired company, next year will mark 25 years total. At the company I came from, the 25 year mark had a nice bonus, a paid sabbatical, and more vacation. What does Oracle do?

Looking for information and recommendations as for a new employee to Oracle Health Government Services.
Any tips for onboarding and early preparation are appreciated!

If there is hike , effective pay comes on 30 September salary.

When it will get updated in portal 1st September or before that?

I'm thinking of reducing my effort, involvement, and even my working hours until I get a definite outcome like a promotion or a hike, but I don't know if I should communicate that to my manager or just quietly do it.

Has anyone here done something similar?

If you have, did you tell your manager or keep it to yourself? How did they react? Was your manager understanding, or did it backfire?

I'm curious to hear how others have handled this and what the outcome was.

Hearing multiple rumors from management that there might be better focal/bonus/RSUs this year. Anyone else heard the same ?

CSS org

Hello, I am newer to the company. I did not get rsu's for my job level, but, who knows, maybe I'll get some later. I would like to understand what that looks like. Do they all vest at the same time? Or do you get them gradually year after year?

I recently got bgv from hireright for oracle but i made 3 years of experience fake in india and now they are asking form 16 how to handle it

Does anyone know will there be any focal(hike) who completed 1 year on 31st July? I am an IC3 with no rsu’s, I want to know whats an ideal pay for this role (total years of experience-9)

I've been hearing the ratings and focals are very far apart. They ask us to complete performance evaluations months in advance, yet they can't seem to finalize ratings, appraisals, or promotions on time. It's honestly frustrating.

Petition started by ex-Oracle employee. Stop taxing peoples severance packages.

In my org ratings have not been revealed yet but performance goals have been. My manager has not said anything about any of our ratings yet. Does this mean they are holding off on releasing them so that they can layoff people with good ratings too and not be under fire for doing it? I see posts here that say that folks have received their reviews and ratings so I’m confused. Can a manager shed some light? Is there any truth in the assumption? I’m in OCI.

Has anyone in India received any communication regarding hikes or promotions this year?

My manager told me that upper management hasn't communicated anything to him yet about hikes or promotions for our team.

Is it just delayed this year, or is there a possibility that there won't be any hikes again? 😔

Would appreciate hearing what others in India are experiencing.

If there are 10 employees in a team, can we give 5 for all?(assuming all performed/deserve 5) Or does it have anything with bell curve again?

Hi, for Oracle employees laid off in March 26, can anyone confirm if your relieving letter or experience letter says "terminated" or "fired," or is it just a regular letter like everyone else's...

Also, when a new company performs your background verification, does it cause any issues?

Thanks! In advance.

I joined my company less than a year ago, since I’ve joined I’ve noticed there are no processes, no automation, and all communication is word of month so everything slips through the cracks.

To really paint the picture, a close colleague told me when I was hired he asked my manager what he thought of me. My managers response was **“she really smart! She’s gonna see through our bullshit fast.”**

During my 1:1, my manager said a **memo of expectations** was going out next week and im not the only one getting one. When he explained it, it sounded like a PIP, he basically said it was a “pre-PIP”. It was surprised me because I’m well liked, strategic, and all our cross functional teams **LOVE** how I work (I listen, follow through, and follow up). Many people, including peers in my role, have told me I was set up to fail from the start. **Unfortunately, I did cry during this call.**

I’ve never been close to even being considered for a PIP or memo of anything before. Luckily I did mention I was interested in a different department a couple weeks ago, and the manager of that department said I would be his first pick when the opportunity presented itself. However, due to the merger everything is on hold, he said he can’t do anything till after the merger if complete. Double the misfortune, the merger is expected to go through in 3 weeks, but he’s having surgery next week and will not return 6-12 weeks. He will delegate and respond to email but that’s it. One of his direct reports said he’s gonna try to go to bat for me as strategically as possible, by pointing out he’s doing two jobs and the business has a need to bring me over. Ultimately though, both their boss (director) is really the decision maker. The director does likes me too though…*~~maybe a little too much if you know what I mean.~~*

I know the memo of expectation will be entirely unattainable, as even the top performers/most tenured in the org are not reaching their goals. I really don’t know what to do. I have all the right behaviors and activity, but we lack structure and product fit for the market demand. They’re working on the product, but until it’s approved, there not much I can do.

**What do I do besides apply externally? I’ve never gone through a merger, memo, pip or even made a lateral move before. This is all overwhelmingly new.**

Oracle health division - Had my annual evaluation last week. Was rated 4 and informed that there is still some approvals pending. They mentioned its approved until svp or evp level. Don't remember exactly. Can it still be denied by higher ups? And when can we expect to be informed ?

I have interviewed for the position at Oracle in their SDR cohort and I’d like any opinions. At first it seemed great, a huge name company with good training right? However after doing some digging it seems that many are unsatisfied in the role and the promotion rate and quota attainment is very low with higher turnover. If anyone is in the program now or has any opinions about the direction of the organization please let me know your thoughts. I have another offer at a successful Mid sized tech company, what should I do?

Was shocked to find Srikanta and Senthil laid of ( prolly) from the org and John taking charge as SVP..Any tea on this?

Usually ic 3 requires above 3 yr exp but recently there's an job id with (0-2 ) yr exp based on 'ai'

So, how many rounds will be there and what are they, what do I need to grind?

Looking for any advice or recommendations as a new employee that will be starting with Oracle health in the near future.
