Pros

Great corporate culture that is demonstrated by John Chambers in everything he does. A very solid, transparent and ethical senior leadership team. Employees really are empowered to make a difference.

Cons

Size of the company means politics can get in the way at times.

Pros

None really at this stage.

Cons

Dealing with too many 'technically below par" engineers and even worse the Managers who are technically incompetent. Hence your learning will be limited. If you stick long enough, you will never come out of this mess because you won't get any outside jobs with your primitive skills you end up learning here at Cisco. I deal with great many business units and groups within Cisco. There are lot of unproductive people who does not have enough work to do. Like the product managers. Most of these product managers will not have their job plates full for a good portion of an year. This is also true for lots of engineering managers and directors. Essentially they are misusing the public investment with poor money management.
