Pros

The Kool-Aid was delicious for a long time, 12+ years. Good benefits, decent salary... everything else, depends on your silo or bubble. I worked in some that were good, some less so. Very few leaders, LOTS of managers and bosses.

Cons

Watching layoffs happen like a train schedule several times per year required cognitive dissonance. Then the "we are Cisco" spell breaks and you realize that most of the happy talk was window dressing.

very bad immigration support (they promise gc filing but never do), layoffs like clockwork, peanuts for TC.
