Good benefits, nice work surroundings, some really great people
If you don't come from Cisco ( the Costco of networking) you and your opinions don't count. VP's come in and bring former employees from Cisco with huge promotions while existing employees stand still, lot's of favortism.
Still a "HW Box" silicon company with routing bigots. Little sense of applications, web or end-user.
Geo- political mess, multiple Business Units have great difficulty working collectively together and there is dfinately a class structure inside the company, again Ex-Cisco VP's rule.
Too many Cisco VP's...hire more engineers so the work can get done right and don't hire them all in India because they are cheaper....it takes 3 times as long to get the same amount of work accomplished and the overhead for both US and India is extremely high.
EVP's have become ATT whipping boys.
Alot of talk about quality improvement but little done in the front end of the development process to encourge better development practices. Test guys have their act together but keep getting overruled by VP's. PLM's.........? where are they?
Simplify the company, start hiring from companies that know how to develope, market and sell applications. Form a partnership and/or acquire new technologies to differentiate from Cisco. Strive to be momre than the number 2 "plumber" in the industry.
