Pros

they send you to california for training

Cons

If Operations is a sinking sinking ship, management are the poorly crafted lifeboats, made from the skin of an old white man moving further and further away. There is pretty little support, low communication, incredibly high turnover, bad training, should I go on? The attempt at inclusion and diversity is pretty funny, they constantly use buzzwords and make you take surveys about how welcome you feel, but don't even have a consistent HR to bring problems to. (You're supposed to go to your manager and have an 'open conversation' and if that doesn't work- submit a case on some random portal). They place high value in support and sales and low value in everyone else. If you're hired here, you'll most likely be placed in a line of people, considered a body to do work, and then later replaced.

Pros

*Free Lunches which do not cater for All and plenty of unhealthy snacks (not quite sure it's a pro but it depends on the individual). *Cisco resources available to Meraki employees/staff.

Cons

*Talentless so called "leaders and managers" who are nothing but repeaters! *Worst management and full of yes men/women. *Poor Salary compared to other firms and companies if you benchmark.

Working at Meraki during the Covid-19 pandemic

Pros

Meraki has shown up in the best way during this emergency time. The company hasn't done a lot of bragging about the ways that they have supported people, so I'm going to do the bragging for them. First with their employees. We received the message to mandatory work from home a full week before SF county announced shelter. Leadership has been very supportive and we've been told many times to prioritize family and well-being. Overall, managers seem to be flexible with the staff, knowing that people have kids and other responsibilities. My manager specifically has been overly flexible knowing that I have a young kid at home and can't work my normal 8 hours. With our vendors and suppliers and the community, Meraki is making sure they are still being paid even though offices are closed. The goal is to make sure all the companies that support us are still around when we recover. We are donating meals to nonprofits and hospitals. Networking equipment was also sent to hospitals. With our customers, special arrangements are being made on licenses and renewals too. Lastly, our leaders have been pretty transparent. We had an AMA a few days ago and it seemed like no topic was off limits.

Cons

This is more of a con on Covid-19 but things are changing so fast that it's hard to keep up. There are probably 4 emails a week from Cisco, Meraki, HR, or others about a change to some process because of what's happening. I know people are working hard on comms.
