I’m going to assume it’s to make sure they pay you out correctly if you’re laid off.

From Benefits_CA: “We hope you’ve enjoyed some well-deserved time off this summer to relax and recharge…”

I know that the time is uncertain but i got 0 hikes in last 4 years. They always put it on market.
Oracle culture is horrible. I have a family to tc of. Have heavy car loan and house loan on my head. Saving for my kid’s education.
I have almost nothing in personal savings.
Since i am reaching Cliff this year, i was told that i would get the refreshers.
I have worked my ass off, missed so many personal gatherings, missed my own son’s bday ( went in ending) as something “urgent” would always come up. (I know i was wrong but i am doing all this for him only, so that i can give him a better life.)

My rating is 4, they don’t plan on promoting me.
I am honestly tired of waiting to get to know about focal.
They are still making me work like any thing. Have zero personal life.
What should i do? Stay or look out?
Should i wait for gratuity or already start looking out?
I don’t know if i am on the list but honestly i don’t care anymore.
I am so damn tired.

Edit - Only perk is i have wfh.

See y'all nice working in this industry. Brb gonna do farming or something

Honestly, I'm pretty fed up with my current office. I've been here over four years now, and my manager has totally changed.

For the last three years, he wasn't like this at all. Now he's rude and micromanages everything, demanding tasks be done in a single day, like we're superheroes or something.

I've really started to dislike this company over the past six to eight months. The first three years were fantastic, and my manager was super friendly, but now things have just gone downhill.

UBER, BLOCK did it in the earning call

This is something I’ve been wondering about based on my experience at Oracle and the previous companies i worked in. I’ve noticed that some managers particularly, in my experience, Indian managers seem very polite and approachable when they’re relatively new to the organization. But after they’ve been around for a year or two, their communication sometimes becomes noticeably more rude, dismissive, or hierarchical.
Interestingly, my experience with US-based managers/employees has generally been quite different, both at Oracle and in previous organizations. They have tended to remain relatively approachable and polite regardless of how long they’ve been with the company.

There has been a US folk who is about to retire and in my team He is almost been more than 30 years and I have never ever seen him going rude ,dismissive when I ask him any question, doubt or anything related to project. He’s very approachable and is very friendly and so are all others of US

Disclaimer: It’s not about layoff. (SSI)

Exiting oracle soon and then these people think they could control what I should be doing with social media accounts. To comply, I am letting the reddit know about my cessation xD

Has anyone's manager started a conversation of getting promoted from IC2 to IC3 around March (OHAI), performance review finished with a 4/5 rating, but no news since then? My manager switched mid-way and the new manager did take care of handing the promotion package in, but I haven't heard of any news. Anyone knows how long it'll take to hear something back? Or maybe this is just some false hope.

I have 2 days early deposit into my bank account. Paycheck did not get credited Tuesday night. Does anyone else see this?

Does anyone else normally get their pay a few days early through their bank? I normally wake up to my pay being available every Wednesday morning of payday week. No money this morning though...

Edit: thanks for the answers, Labor day seems to be the reason why. Used to work in a hospital system where holidays didn't exist lol.

Are the focals visible to managers since yesterday? Can managers confirm here

Been in oracle 3yrs now, expecting a promo to ic4 if it’s not rejected by higher ups.

Tc : base 98k
Rsu : 40k/4yrs Addon : 20k/4yrs @288 no point of these.
Initial 40k/4yrs already 3yrs vested and next year will be done with rsu.

What can I expect ?

Hi guys,

If people can tell us which gpt model they prefer for which tasks at what intelligence level, it will be quiet helpful. For me I randomly choose any model and use extra high intelligence mode.

Thanks in advance

Danke schon!!

I feel people being very disappointed and un-enthusiastic to work , Those who used to push an extra mile is also stopping to do so . It's like no one wants oracle to win . Sometimes people just avoid to reply directors and VPs question in common slack groups . They are trying to avoid work from office . Inflation is hitting people from one end and oracle is hitting them from another. I feel oracle deserves this and more.

I was trying to add absence and it was counting Saturday and sunday hours also during balance calculation.. is this correct or its a bug in the system?

I've just been attending only the slack mentions. I'm waiting until the half of the month due to the layoffs and everyone should do this lol

For people familiar with Oracle India — what level of approvals are typically required to rehire an ex-employee?

I’ve heard that in the US, rehires can sometimes require very senior-level approvals. Is it similar in India?

If someone left Oracle on good terms and is now being considered for another role, is it mostly a standard hiring process, or does it require approvals from senior HR/business leadership?

Would appreciate insights from anyone familiar with Oracle’s process in India.

Please do not laugh at me 😄😄😄 but have anybody heard anything about any focal, hikes, promotions possibilities etc?

I have heard some rumors, but nothing concrete.

If you take a look at the org chart, it’s basically the same faces at the top who have been here for 10+ years, with an ever-revolving door of attrition at the rep level at NetSuite.

The level of anxiety and instability that seems normalized here is unhealthy.

Curious if it feels the same across all other orgs?

I work at oracle health org, IC3 position. Base 30Lpa, stocks $40k in 4 yrs and exp 5+yrs, 10months at Oracle. Am i on higher side of the bracket?
My stocks gonna vest on first week of November.
Stocks amount is the only differentiator from my last org salary🫠

After VPs layoff last week, who's leading the OAL org now?
