I only stayed long enough to migrate the service to Oracle infrastructure. Looks like they still offer it but when I left work was underway to roadmap decoupling what was then a OOP heavy Java monolith. I want to say primarily to move the UI/UX to Oracles internal standards and tech stack for such, but this was 2015; uuuuh I forget man.

My anecdote was based on interactions with sales, product, and senior engineering professionals. Internal culture seemed very forward thinking; work from home/anywhere Oracle had a business presence. Solid benefits, new parent leave, yoga/that kind of thing stipends. Though that may have been due to contractual obligation of the aquihire, and applied to my team only at that time. :shrug: The “problems” I saw were very much “first world problems”

Used to work there due to acquihire (throwaway acct since regular can out me).

Engineers were walked through how to interact with clients; don’t say this or that because of laws and treaties. But also to listen for customer language that suggests a customer is cheating Oracle; let Oracle know and they will send the lawyers.

It was a very paranoia driven environment.
