Great Balance, Slow Promotions
Great Balance, Slow Promotions
Cisco has the best work-life balance that allows you to be stress-free.
People around you would always be helpful on your work assignments.
One of the best companies to work for in the networking domain.
There is at least a 3-year waiting period for a promotion as your number of years of experience increases. I believe that would be the case in other bigger companies too.

Cisco Interview Experiences
Software Engineer
There were two coding rounds and one technical round; overall, a pleasant experience. There was a long time between application submission and when the interviewing process began, but the interviewing process was completed in a few weeks.

The experience was really good overall. Although certain questions seemed irrelevant, like file system architecture, it was overall a good mix of OS, DBMS, and computer network fundamentals. Thank you for your time.

Screening phone call, 15-minute introductory conversation. Technical interview consisted of asking basic OOP, 2 LeetCode Easy-Medium questions, and being asked about your project experience. Ghosted and rejected finally after a month.
