Great Benefits, Office Politics
Great Benefits, Office Politics
I started working at Cisco TAC in Bangalore when it was just being set up. The benefits were amazing!
- Work from home
- Weekend/holiday pay
- Shift allowance
- Free cab service to and from home
- Energetic and young workplace
- Completely informal
Lots of politics, stack ranking, not easy to advance. And MOST OF ALL, a lot of people seem to treat TAC as a temp job while they hunt for other jobs. Well, it was my first job out of college, so it may be that other jobs are also like that.
Go easy on coercing employees into shifts. Make it clear that holiday/weekend work is optional. Remove stack ranking; it is such BS!
