      Pros

      Good benefits, flexible hours, the facilities, compensation, two gyms on site, good employee discounts, smart people, everyone is issued a lap top (makes working much easier) brand recognition. If you can get into a good group that is not filled with territorial people that have been here for too long you will do just fine.

      Cons

      It's really a sales organization and not product oriented, review and bonus measurement metrics overly complicated and convoluted, management is too busy to help mentor your career path.

      A great company that has lost it's way.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The People...wow there are some talented people here. Industry leader...allows you into doors that others have to fight to get into. Benefits...Pretty good considering the rising costs.

      Cons

      Lower than industry average Compensation Promotions (within Sales) are rare and hard to come by. Repect from management is lacking, you are just considered another cog in the wheel. Common thing to hear at Cisco, "You should be happy you still have a job here" Senior Managment likes to promote each other...but it is hard for the average working guy to get a promotion, and raises are VERY RARE. Very Long Hours...not uncommon to work 70+ hour weeks.
