Treats employees like disposable objects
Treats employees like disposable objects
Virtual set-up is excellent (you pay for your ISP access and cell phone).
Training is widely available in your chosen discipline.
Excellent for remote workers, but watch your "6" all the time.
When it comes to reorgs, layoffs do not offer employees rehoming opportunities. You have to apply to listed positions. During a layoff period, people applying are viewed differently. Cisco relies heavily on contractors (contracts are 90 days with extensions) and H-1Bs.
Treat employees like they are important and not easily replaceable widgets.

Detailed technical questions. Questions about background. Recruiter quickly set up the meeting. Slow feedback from the interview. Questions were vague. Explain how to lead the team and what it means for me to be a team leader.

Amazing, streamlined, and very deep. The interviewers knew what they were asking and understood the job. The interview included a broad range of people within the larger organization, each with slightly different expectations. This provided a very go
