Pros

Great opportunities if you are willing to relocate, but limited if you are located in Scotland, which I was.

Working with hard-working and talented people from whom you can learn.

Good management.

Good pay and benefits.

Cons

Need to relocate to take advantage of real career opportunities.

Cisco will cull staff every few years, and if you are in a targeted area, there isn't much you can do.

Advice to Management

You have talented employees outside of San Jose. Invest in them!

Cisco is a global company with global employees, so it should make more effort to move away from a San Jose-centric culture.
