Pros

The best thing about working at Cisco is that you get to work closely on network devices, and you get multiple sources to learn anything and everything.

Right from mentor to manager, all are always available to guide you. If you show your interest in the work assigned and would like to work on other features as well, they are always supportive.

Cons

They don't convert Co-Op into full-time.

Advice to Management

Sincere advice to management: Cisco is almost every network engineer's dream company (mine for sure).

When Cisco hires a co-op, give them an opportunity to understand Cisco's work and culture and get tuned to it. Then, how can you just lose them after giving them almost a year of work experience?

Please do think about it.
