Who is running Oracle these days?

Earlier this week, we noted that Oracle’s acquisition binge has reshaped the company’s workforce, with almost one-third of employees having joined through those purchases.

It turns out that the executive ranks are also being altered. A proxy filed Wednesday as part of Oracle’s (ticker:ORCL) pending acquisition of Bea Systems (ticker:BEAS) includes a PowerPoint presentation by President Charles Phillips extolling the virtue of the combination.

Among the upsides for BEA employees about to be eaten alive join Oracle is the opportunity, some day, to be running the joint. Just check out this slide that lists current execs who joined the company through acquisitions:

Can we assume that one day that slide will include someone with the CEO title?
