Pros

Lots of projects and the pay is excellent. Cafeteria is terrific, one of the best in Silicon Valley. Many interesting people.

Cons

Unfortunately, some of the people I worked with had no idea what they were doing. They thought their product was operational and were aghast when we demonstrated it didn't work. Plus there is little communication between groups, even among support people.

Pros

large company, lots of different oppertunities. you can go into cisco as a nobody and leave as a professional networking guy with 5 cisco certs under your belt. you have to take advantage of the situation.

Cons

in the group i worked in, no work life balance, all work. ive heard thats not normal for cisco though. with the group i was in it wasnt the persuit of knowledge, it was the pursuit of getting it done. i would try to understand more about how things worked but would often get back the response from someone of "i dont know, why do you care"
