Oh but it gets better. Many of them are ex oracle employees. It's a huge racket that exists for itself.
- winrid 3y agothe revolving door of oracle consultants? :)
- walrus01 3y agoI have mentally trained myself that every time I read the word "Oracle", I replace it with "Larry Ellison needs a bigger yacht". Thus far, this has worked great for me in staying away from paying that organization even one dollar.
- estebank 3y agoOracle is an acronym: One rich asshole called Larry Ellison.
- blackhawkC17 3y agoHe actually sold his bigger yacht (The Rising Sun) to David Geffen and settled for a smaller one (Musashi), lol
- CobrastanJorji 3y agoThese kinds of things are everywhere. To pick one at random, if you want to list a product on amazon.com, there's no shortage of consulting companies that will figure out how to make it happen. And then you can get a consultant for your amazon advertising (the ads that go on amazon.com to advertise other products also on amazon.com) and a consultant to help make your company the default choice when a customer clicks the buy button in the "buy box," and a few more. You can easily spend hundreds of thousands on these consultants. Honestly, the Amazon hustle is a crazy and fascinating little ecosystem in a bunch of ways.
