Cisco

I've been with Cisco for 12 years. I had the opportunity to come through the CSAP/ASE training program. There is no other program in the industry that can match the resources they provide to take new talent and ensure they are successful, for the good of the individual and the company.

Opportunities exist everywhere you look, whether that is training to stay, evolve, and enjoy your current role or transition to another.

The company truly feels like family. I think they have your best interest in mind with the majority of the decisions they make.

Great benefits outweigh 20% pay increases I've evaluated at other jobs.

Mid-level management sometimes isn't great.

It seems they are unable to fire individuals that aren't pulling their weight. Often, these individuals exist for years before they are terminated.
