Oracle forces Cloud down your throat
In order to force analytics/BI customers to the cloud, they removed their top salespeople from the equation if you wanted your software on-premise. They also wouldn't bonus the salespeople if they sold non-cloudy licenses. So, our consultancy's network of hight-falutin' Oracle salesreps evaporated, replaced by a phone bank of anonymous sales folks in Hyderabad. Sad.
