Pros
Cisco's vision as communicated by John and the rest of senior leadership is one that engenders hard work and loyalty "Change the way the world works, lives, plays, and learns." There are plenty of smart people and plenty of long hours...rewards are good, not great. Interesting work most of the time.
Cons
Lots of smart people and long hours make the competition for jobs and promotions fierce, especially if you're gunning for Director or above. Typical fast pace and lots of ambiguity to deal with.
