Process
Cisco Systems came to our campus career fair to recruit new graduate students. I had the matching background, so they decided to give me an interview. They started up with the cliché question, "Tell us more about yourself..."

Absolutely dreadful, unprofessional team/org. Your mileage may vary with other orgs
Software Engineering Technical Leader • Current Employee
Remote
December 12, 2022
Pros: The company seems to be embracing new tech. Fair pay.
Cons: Contractors on some teams are treated with an enormous amount of disrespect by "blue badge" employees. I was one of these "blue badge" employees and hated seeing the contractors I worked with treated badly. Think rude language, lack of respect for working hours/time off, etc.
The interviewers also lied to me by omission during the interview process. The team I interviewed to join was disbanded as soon as I joined, and the work/colleagues changed as a result. Absolutely unprofessional.
