Well, you may have a different experience, but for me and my companies (current/prev) it wasn't a lot of fun working with Oracle.

It's not that all the stuff is bad or that all the 'free' things turn sour, most of the things are technologically sound, but there is just so much lawyering, licensing and IP fighting that takes all the joy out of life. This isn't unique to Oracle, but not even IBM is as passive-agressive as their non-tech people and documents are.
