      Pros

      Cisco really supports work-life balance and has many programs for new hires to integrate into the company and socialize with coworkers. Groups are generally small yielding good sized teams, effective in getting stuff done. Benefits package is great as well. Management communicates to employees well (but doesn't necessarily receive employee feedback very well)

      Cons

      A lot of bureaucracy so its hard to get stuff done, especially with technology that functions across multiple platforms. Sometimes have to work long hours especially close to deadlines. The company is huge so you really only work with and get to know a small group of people.

      Pros

      Cisco ,the old brand name adds some value to job profile. Learn new technologies by chance of any new acquisitions since most new technologies and good selling prodcuts are acquired by cisco. Learn how to make things more complex. Having fun around compromising your work experience

      Cons

      Ridiculous manangement that have a philososphy of working to add an entry in performance review and not for the necessity. All happens in the name of process and no wonder if it doesnt happen at all :-D You can think about promotions in dream,oppurtunities in words. Full politics and no recognition for deserving candidates. Almost worst outsourced services like HR ,Work place resources, etc for employees. All happens in the name of process and no wonder if it doesnt happen at all :-D To say it simple,you can be recognised as a fool if you stay long. If more than that if you wish to take a chance then its your fate!
