I'm in cloud and I'd really like to leave Oracle behind me. I'd also like to go to a company that doesn't have the same issues as we do - most of all constant layoffs. I was considering joining a startup but nixed that idea quickly, which leaves the usual suspects. Any ideas here on what's the best option among them?

You might try Google. I hear they are getting desperate over there.

So WTF are your skills? Staying locked in the bathroom?
I’m in agreement that this is a troll post by an OCI exec just trying to get a rise out of people here.
Indeed, sux to be you. No “real” cloud company will recognize anyone coming out of OCI as a real cloud person. Rather, a cloud wannabe or impostor. Just like the OCI certifications. Worth the paper they are printed on …. Pretty much nil.

It depends quite a lot on what you do - do you sell something cloudy, or do you lead the design and implementation of the NVMe over Fabric storage stack in the target?
Sounds to me like you are pretty much screwed.
There is no value for oracle cloud certifications. Get Amazon or Azure certifications and you are good to go.
Troll post.
We need to sic the Ax-Man on the OP.
“I’m in cloud” doesn’t say much at all about you. Can you give some better detail about your actual marketable skills? For instance, if all you can do is configure OCI environments, like the sort of drivel the oracle certifications care about, you’ll have very few opportunities in other companies. If on the other hand you work in the OCI engineering org (which I doubt, or you wouldn’t need to be asking naive questions like this), you’ll have lots of potential opportunities.
