CG has been in and out of all the hubs telling managers to "seed" every active deal with ADW, whether the customer has a use case for it or not. Hmmm that sounds eerily familiar to when it was widespread that reps were "seeding cloud" into every deal. The internal moniker for those deals amongst sales, was a "financially engineered" deal where there was no use case and the customer had no intention to actually use OCI but it was rammed down their throat to avoid being audited. It's funny how that practice got multiple class action law suits brought against Oracle. In addition, CG has said that reps should tell customers that ADW is a pre-req for other Oracle products, even if that turns out to be false. With this fresh new approach and earth shatteringly disruptive sales plays, It seems Oracle has a very rosey future indeed. Good luck to all impacted by the RIF, the grass is much greener out there you will be fine. Put this all behind you like it was a very, very terrible dream

what is truly sad about these mo--n sales id--ts is that there is a universal credit system in place. who cares if the customer uses . with universal credits customers should be able to buy whatever and burn whatever else including using on premise c-ap. i know if i was a customer i would stay on prem for another few years until this mess gets hashed out.
Tons of ads on the radio with the guy who founded Ring, saying “Netsuite by Oracle”.
@YbTw27F-ccd He replaced SA, I can’t give the full name but very easy to find on Aria.Think of the guy that is featured in those excellent “hot wins” videos.
@YbTw27F, can you give some hints on who is CG?
Seeding is the starting point of cloud fraud and oracle cloud revenues are the product of cloud fraud, so there you have it.
Autonomous Data Warehouse - why would a customer fall for that being a pre-req. Its also extremely expensive, isn't it?
More lies to the customers. That should really help.
Anyone see that NetSuite commercial where they never mention the word "oracle"? Just there at the end in smaller print. Oracle is learning to hide its own name.
Honestly, I don't think a company can recover from that, no matter what.
