So tired watching colleagues leaving on their own or being let go as the rest of us not know what is going on or what to expect tomorrow. At the same time MH & SC tell analysts and reporters all is great - and getting better.
It is the complete opposite. I am in Oracle sales and my wife works at one of the larger metro Oracle offices. Conversations with clients are getting more difficult everyday. They are openly hostile as they see me as the face of Oracle. Every support issue, every threat of audit or actual audit - doesn't matter. I get paid nothing for this grief yet have to manage it while not making any money doing my day job because these clients want to buy as little as possible from Oracle. Often, just for spite. If I hear one more time how they are "this close to moving to postgres" I'll explode. I don't blame them at all which is my point. I do blame our Executive team who seem to be following the Titanic playbook of other once great companies. This isn't the company I joined 12 years ago out of college.
