Cisco reviews

Cisco is an engineer-centric society, much to its own detriment. Cisco had an HR department website instead of new-employee orientation. Despite the steady stream of complaints from employees about the user hostility of the internal HR website, Cisco persisted in forcing its employees to rely on a highly unreliable internal HR website, much to the frustration of everyone involved. Cisco management seemed hell-bent on working its employees days, nights, and weekends -- all the while chanting the Work-Life Balance buzzwords as hypocritical propaganda. Other companies work hard to instill and encourage and maintain mutual respect so that each and every employee, from board room to mail room engage with kindness and respect. Not Cisco. Horrendous coffee.
