Bright talent anguishing at the bottom of the company hierarchy.
Diminishing technical jobs with frequent layoffs due to outsourcing. New tech has become sweatshop culture. The CEO got a huge raise of 80% for cutting jobs. Management had the mindset of Cisco being a hardware company. Failure to make timely acquisitions in software, virtualization, and next-gen technologies has put the company's dominance far behind its competitors.
Don't axe employees who make constructive criticism. I was one of the victims and critics of the CEO handing the current company's direction, and I asked for the CEO to meet folks on the bottom of the totem pole in my review. Next is now history. Hahaha.
Cisco Systems is pretty good.
No pressure. Friendly atmosphere. Met team members. Had lunch with great company. Compensation was not so great. Lots of initiatives, but also lots of lazy individuals. Not much to discuss. A great place to retire.
I was hired as a college hire through an on-campus interview. It consisted of three rounds: * Basic knowledge in coding and puzzles. * Coding. * HR. The problems were easy and average.
