      Cisco - Not a good place to work for

      Regional sales manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I started working for Cisco thinking that this is the company that I wanted to retire with. It had the name and the market share to prove. The reputation of treating employees fairly and rewarding them based on performance was also high on my list.

      Cons

      During the bad times, the true Cisco came to light. Bad Managers were promoted. Wrong decisions were taken and good people either were let go or simply resigned, like myself.

      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      able to work remotely - telecommuting even in different countries, ability to change job within company, stable company even in bad economy - large product portfolio

      Cons

      lower salary than competitors, culture differs for each BU - some BUs provide boring work, do just process, some are very fast moving (can burn you out)

      Lost in the shuffle

      Program manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits, good food, ability to telecommute

      Cons

      Cisco is a behemoth. I found it to be a very impersonal, cold environment where a majority of the employees seemed to have drank the Cisco "kool-aid."
