Currently earning $300k base with 100k in RSUs annually at Oracle as an engineer, though my title is different (director title). All they've asked from me so far is engineering IC work.
I had to negotiate hard for it, and my expertise spans multiple currently hot tech domains. Also a former founder of my own startup.
I'll also say that despite the common hater mentality against Oracle, it's been a nice place to work in my experience. As long as your boss and team are a good fit, you can have a good life, interesting work and good balance.
- solarkraft 8y agoThis makes me wonder whether Oracle's unpopularity raises the wages they pay.
- The0racle 8y agoIt's definitely possible. I've also learned that a lot of folks at Oracle don't make that much money, but like their teams, projects, and stability. Can't say I completely get it. It's definitely more chill than startup life, though.
- godelmachine 8y agoMay I ask what's IC?
- neuronsguy 8y agoI think it means Individual Contributor work, so he's coding stuff not managing people
