Pros

Many technical resources to help people get things done.

Cons

Cisco has lost some of its people focus in favor of a bottom line focus, which takes the joy out of work. It is trying to be a place for mid-career workers, but it is a hard place for older workers to succeed.

Advice to Management

Spend more money on taking care of your people, especially the ones over 50, who currently seem to get disproportionately managed out.
