I worked at Oracle for 15 years in a GBU run by complete clowns. I realized too late that half the people were completely incompetent and they were usually mgmt. so lately a former colleague who also left O years ago told me the stories of some people getting laid off. “He was checked out since 2012…..he was waiting for it for the last 14 years….he didn’t care at all…” “oh, so sad, she got laid off….shes been there so long….i mean…” the first guy, prob hero to most. I def understand it. Now the second person. She was there when I was there. She acted like big stuff. She got roles in cloud and she never even knew anything about cloud or app or even was in the trenches. How did she move up? She was buddy buddy with our horrible mgmt. then she got one of her buddies on the team. Both of them together couldn’t update any Oracle app on their own laptops. I told my former colleague, I have zero empathy for her getting laid off. If she thought the skills and job she did that a 10 yr old could do would last forever, she deserved it. Oracle is different than many companies. Mgmt su-ks and really there literally thousands of people who are hiding. They may have joined via some small company that Oracle took a liking to and purchased and then they’re this “techie”. They’re not. My last 2 managers, Walmart greeters had more technical know how than both of them. Both were a-holes. I have zero sympathy for these people that not only skated but treated people like sh-t as tons and tons of talent left cause of people like her and mgmt. good riddance.
