Thread regarding Oracle Corp. layoffs

Agree with @Tn2iERj-2jkk

The scum is still working their scams and it is mostly good employees who have been removed because they are too much competition for the scum, or average employees who refuse to s----up to the management.

The scum will be the last to go, maybe 1-2 years, but they will go. They are systematically destroying the company by clawing their way up the ladder.

“Don't pollute your new company with thugs and scam artists.”

Amen! And as another poster in this thread said, your reputation is everything. Recommend someone if they’ll enhance the bottom line at your new company. Helps the company, makes you look good.

I will go against the herd here. I don't think too many (if any) of the cancerous people were forced to leave ORCL just yet, as they started to be forced out of IBM a year ago. If we are objective we realize the people that left so far were either the most talented people who's voices were silenced, or the average performance that weren't any good at as kising. All the very dangerous employees think that all is awesome with Oracle and they focus on digging the next grave for their own benefit. Unless we talk about a few VPs or Senior Directors, we are likely targeting the wrong employees that are being forced out. The leeches that digged this company's grave are at least 1-2 years away away from being forced out. Then we can enjoy them interviewing with us ;-)) I just wait!!!

Do I still think the CEOs and LE are the ones to allow this to happen? Hell yeah!

I don't think the message is silly. Some people will hire anyone that they know, just cause they know them and are afraid to give a straight review of them.

Don't hire people just cause they come from Oracle and you have some kind of soft spot for the Oracle incompetents. Don't pollute your new company with thugs and scam artists.

The original message is a bit silly. If you were asked your opinion about a former colleague or manager with less than pristine reputation, you would not recommend him. Coming from Oracle or not.

The corporate world is full of politics and back stabbing but what goes around comes around.

If I get a bonus for that, then we will hire him.

:-)

Please hire Hamidou

In general, I wouldn't hire anyone in the management under TKs org. I know several of them, they all learn the same tactics from each other and as far as I can tell they are all the same, incompetent, clueless, lying scum.

@Tn2iERj-1sev

you should first start to learn how to read, first.

This the basic before trying to answer to a post.

I wrote I left the company, not that I was laid off.

I also wrote that I will never let any idiot that is making oracle bad do the same in the company I'm now working for.

And I'll veto him/her, period.

You seem eligible to that treatment.

Cheers.

Two years ago you were laid off... OMG. Get over it already.

Companies change, products change and guess what... Some times you get laid off. Do you expect a employer to just continue to work your job when its no longer of strategic importance.

Move on and get over it already.

@Tn2iERj-lvp:

How is telling the truth revenge? I will never put my reputation and good word on the line for anyone not worthy of it. I will tell the truth, the entire truth and nothing but. I will not lie to harm another, but I won't lie to help them when it can blow back on me.

OP: same here. Left O 1 year ago, now working for a REAL engineering company. I have been asked to feedback on two possible candidates coming from O. Knew one of them very well, the other only by comments. Suggested my boss to move on as quickly as possible to other candidates.

This is a small world, you should expect that if you acted in a certain way in the past, you will get consequences in the future.

Definitely, don't hire any HR people from Oracle. They aren't really HR people, they are just cheap lawyers who memorize the rules and recite them to employees when some issue comes up.

Definitely, don't hire anyone from Oracle that you think is incompetent or a total scumbag. They will make someone's life at work a nightmare.

Those two things will rule out most Oracle employees, but there are a few that are worth hiring, here and there. Unless you know someone in the upper management personally, you should assume they are incompetent and rule them out.

No mercy hirings.

If it gives you satisfaction in exacting revenge on people, so bet it.

As for thanking God, recall the following words: "forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us."

I have a very simple rule about hiring former associates and I ask the same question of coworkers when they recommend an acquaintance. If we hire them, will they make our jobs easier or harder? Whether I like them or not doesn’t matter. I never hire friends just to be friends. So nothing is personal. It is always business. I hired a guy I really didn’t like. He did great. I was also happy when he quit after a few years but, when he quit, my job got harder.
