I'm non-plussed. Their "Hello World" example in C is essentially unparseable for anyone who doesn't already know what's going on. Anyone care to explain it? I don't know how much of this example is written in js and how much in C, how much is boilerplate or anything. It's awful.
Run away - currently in that role. The (9 month old) team I'm in is falling apart as everyone is bailing for literally any other company. There are two problems - 1) Most of Oracle's products are so badly made and the documentation so sucky that the job is near impossible - you can't demonstrate to customers what you can't get running yourself and 2) All of the managers at the higher levels are sales people - we had to fight to get decent laptops because they didn't know that programming required it (not joking). And you hardly ever get to do actual programming. Most of the people in my division feel they were tricked into taking the job.

Seriously, this isn't a joke. It's that bad.
