Pros

I enjoyed good benefits and flexible working hours. I go into the office at 10 and go home at 6.

Cons

Company layoffs are frequent. If you are considering working for Cisco, make sure that you are working on a good product.

Advice to Management

Leadership is secretive, and not enough information gets trickled down to the engineers. Second-level managers are usually hollow and do not reach out to employees.
