Pros

I have a lot of latitude in how to do my job--I don't have to use processes or tools that aren't optimal because that is policy. Cisco is also really supportive of parents; I never get flak about working at home or leaving early to care for my son.

Cons

It's so big that nothing happens quickly. Also, you can go years without a raise.

Pros

The salary and benefits are good. Fellow employees are for the most part nice and helpful. There is some recognition for working at Cisco.

Cons

Management is slow and goals are vague or inconsistent. Evaluations are subjective and career advancement is not great. Not much recognition for the work you do. Cisco culture is political. Also, they only play Fox News on the TVs at the cafeteria. That news broadcast is way too opinionated, political, and annoying.
