Pros

Good remuneration and numerous benefits (works council, ESPP, etc.).

Remote work facilitated and good atmosphere.

Cons

No Cisco investment in the R&D department for several years, no clear long-term strategy.

Massive disengagement from activities that are "not profitable enough" (ROI <30%) with repeated layoffs and social plans for the employees concerned (3 in 3 years with a turnover of over 50%).

Advice to Management

Cisco fait la publicité de ses investissements en France, mais la réalité en est très éloignée.
