Primarily, Oracle is a relational database, emaning its suitable for large scale applications and useful for large corporations.
Oracle also sells applications, such as financials, payroll, developer tools etc, which all work with the Oracle database. The power of Oracle is its flexibility, so people often customise these apps, or integrate them into custom apps.
There aee many paths to take.
Oracle DBAs install, tune and maintain the back end database. If you are a a real hardware fan, this is the area to look at. An experienced Oracle DBA is always in demand.
If you like apps, you can either learn the forms tools. Many Oracle programmers get started by learning forms and then learning one of the packaged apps, and then workin maintaining existing apps, writing interfaces and customizing an app. Oracle programmers are still in demand.
Thats only a start.

In the Oracle world a DBA is more than someone who adds new users. Their primary responsibility is to ensure the performance of the application. They work with the developers in ensuring the database is structured appropriately, they work with security to ensure security standards are followed. A good Oracle DBA is worth their weight in gold.
