Pros

Nice Gym. Nice intranet. Nice heath center

Cons

A lot of management layers, tons of managers, VP, senior VP, GM.. You are supposed to work on weekend, night time by paying yourself boardband. Totally lose you life. Ranking system makes everyone is your enemy, not going to share information and complete/trap each other. Your rank is totally based on your manager taste. No career growth. No inflation adjustment and no raise. Current layoff and outsource all USA jobs to India.

Pros

Ability to work from near enough anywhere Work with some of the latest technologies and products Stable and debt free company

Cons

If you currently have a social life and want to keep it, don't work for Cisco - work/social life balance is pathetic. Salary does not match work load - Expectation to give too much personal time without reward. Too much micro empire building in management. It used to be a great place to work, a fun place to work, now it's just a place to work to pay the bills Too much focus on ePM - a lot of expense, back end systems, staff supporting a system/process that is totally time consuming and meaningless.
