Laid off/Interviewing with big tech and startups
I got laid off but I was already looking beforehand so it worked out. I’m currently getting reached out to by big tech and startups. I’ve noticed that startups are paying more by $20-40k. This might be a stupid question but do you go with more money... — read more

I started applying when word of layoffs started making the rounds
I just landed my first offer. It's a smaller company and they offer a little less money but better benefits and from what I can see much better company culture. I'll be honest, I'm tempted to accept it. I never thought I'd be considering a job that... — read more
Many leaving without a big severance payoff
I am looking for a new job and it is in my interest to get it before I get laid off because my severance pay would not be large. But what surprises me is that many who would otherwise get a big severance payoff are leaving as well? Why leave this... — read more

Uber-ize support and and other Oracle roles. Return Oracle to industry leadership.
More attention needs to be paid to this brilliant suggestion: @1lyh+1ifHBh9N Support is a high turnover role. Not much training or skill required (at least not to meet Oracle's existing support quality standards today). Uber-izing support would... — read more
Continuation of layoffs
I wish there was a way to know when layoffs will continue. I envy those who are no longer stressing over it after the latest round but for me, knowing that there's more to come is still keeping me up at night - including right now. I'm not sure how... — read more
Salaries in Support org
Someone posted about low salaries in support org . Lot of engineers are paid less than 85k . Lot of them have stayed here so long that their skills have become irrelevant for the market . No disrespect to these guys , but it’s a shame that these... — read more
Severance
How much money are y’all getting for the severance packages. Dollar amount or percentage of salary would be helpful to know to see if I got screwed.
Totally true
From an earlier post … “If you have been with the company a long time then you're getting extra screwed so you get the added bonus of knowing that college grad's who know nothing about Oracle makes more than you.”
Oracle on resume
Someone's comment that Oracle looks good on a resume made me laugh. I wonder if that was a sarcastic comment or if someone actually thinks that Oracle still looks good on a resume?
Lucky 17!
Well once again August 17th has rolled around. Take a moment to remember USA 17 now lonely in the Emerald City pond and wish the Lord of Lanai a happy 78th and a good price on the Florida teardown he's flipping for 9 figures.
SM all hands next week.
Raises coming or more layoffs.
So when is the next scheduled reaming?
Last few weeks have been a total nightmare. I'm starting to feel like Kevin Bacon in Animal House during the initiation scene. I'm sick of prostrating myself at this company. When are they going to subject us to it all over again? Has the dust... — read more

Any layoffs in Fusion Support going on?
Should I be worried. Pardon my ignorance.
Disappointed that you weren't cut?
I'm a little ashamed to say it, considering all the people who were affected and to whom this job meant a lot. However, I am totally disappointed that I didn't get cut. All the time I worked minimally, hoping that I would be cut and get the... — read more

Anyone in UK has any update on when this will come to us?
Increased workload
I'm among the lucky ones whose team managed to avoid layoffs in this round but I know if even one person was cut we'd have major issues with the workload. We're swamped right now and losing somebody would make it ten times harder to get things done... — read more

Warn Act for Remote Workers
Has anyone been offered a lower severance package than the WARN Act guidelines for their state? And why are they making us wait another 3 days for our severance details?
Does Layoff Agreement have non-compete?
I don't have any form of non-compete as it stands. Does anyone know what the severance agreement looks like? I have less than 1 year here so my incentive to agree to some bloated severance contract is non-existent. If I get laid off from Oracle can... — read more
No stability here
Stability in any case should just be erased from your mind completely because there is no such thing as stability at Oracle anymore. Those who want a stable position, maybe it would be better to start looking for something new right away.
How will this week play out?
Can we expect more cuts?
People leaving on their own.
My experience throughout the years tells me that we have just scratch the surface in terms of layoffs. When layoffs happen at Oracle they tend to go on for a longer period of time in larger and smaller waves. I believe that a lot of the employees are... — read more
