A relaxed work environment most of the time.
You will be surprised how cheap Cisco can be. They make you buy your own equipment/tools and say the money you spent is on your bonus check. If you fall into a team that is supervised by someone who is nepotistic and biased, good luck. You may think Cisco is a professional company, but based on your team, it might be better to work for a slimy consulting company than Cisco. I never could imagine Cisco would be that cheap. They also recently laid off many people.
Eliminate some of the bias and nepotistic, slimy managers in the company.
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.
