Stable, Good Pay, Slow Impact
Stable employment. Cisco is trusted very well in the networking world. No one gets fired for buying Cisco. Good employer to be with during downturn. Competitive pay and bonuses. Four weeks of vacation. Located in beautiful San Jose. Nice co-workers. Cisco respects employees well. Diversity is celebrated well. Senior leadership is strong.
Too large. You are one in thousands. Not much innovation inside the company.
Takes a long time to make any impact. Lot of layers of management.
Typical disadvantages of working for a very large enterprise company. Not the best place to be at the bleeding edge of the networking industry.
Lessen the number of processes.
