2 CEOs that know nothing about technology, just cost cutting
Aged, part- time CTO
Head of development that can't deliver software - Fusion fiasco
Bunch of uninterested, purchased SaaS solutions
Deskilled workforce through layoffs - by now 1,000 and more coming
Classic tale of corporate destruction
It's hard to argue against that. Typical Mark Hurd led company. Look at HP, that's here Oracle is going.
Will soon have to split/divest product lines to minimize the impact of Mark Hurd' stupidity.
Hurd is a makeup artist. There's nobody better to kill the pig and put make up on the pig to tell people it's still alive.

What is the Fusion fiasco?
Fusion Applications. It's a complete train wreck. The worst software any of us have ever seen. The few customer's who do actually use it (as opposed to ones who only "buy" cloud credits because they are included at no extra charge in an already agreed upon deal), hate it. It is rediculously buggy and poorly designed. It is one of the main reasons we have so many SaaS outages.
Very talented engineers and individual contributors in the team, but misdirected.
The only group under TK that delivers is the database group.
The development org under TK has a terrible track record of delivering software. If he's the anointed successor after LE, MH, and SC are done cutting, oracle has no future.
Like a cuba libre with extra limes?
