Pros

open communication from senior management, nice food in cafeteria

Cons

Managers clueless about the function they manage. People promoted based on how well they suck up vs. performance.

Pros

It's a big company and the market leader. Great medical and health care plans and flexible work hours and places. An important tool for garnering that feedback is the Cisco pulse survey. This provides a confidential and consistent means for employees across Cisco to rate their experience with the company. I would recommend Cisco as a good place to work and would encourage people to join Cisco. Taking everything into account, I would say this is a great place to work.

Cons

It has all the downsides that all big companies tend to have.

Pros

I work near my home in San Francisco at a beautiful office location. The organization I work in is highly collaborative without a lot of management layers.

Cons

I didn't want the Cisco name on my resume because large, B to B, corporations generally don't get respect in my industry.
