Pros

Hands-on experience and fast ramp-up in Cisco tech.

Cons

Lack of structure for the technical onboarding. Lack of experienced colleagues who can assist initially. Unacceptable language: usage of profanities, screaming, and bullying.

Advice to Management

Check the attrition rate for several departments and think carefully whether it shows adequate management.

Stop promoting exam vouchers as a "limited, ping me by the end of the day and you might also get better chances for getting summer holiday approved" opportunity.

There are plenty of people who would certify without these absurd tactics!
