Cisco is no longer a tech company
Cisco is no longer a tech company
Competitive pay for new hires, good brand recognition, excellent campus, good transport system, women-friendly (good WFH options).
No culture of excellence. India development is mostly maintenance. For senior folks, India is empire building, with huge teams chugging out mindless work. Long-term employees are poorly rewarded. We are losing out to competitors. Expats significantly add to the cost with no tangible value add.
Get rid of all the expats and take good care of your existing employees.
Create opportunities for innovation instead of just empire building.
