Pros

I worked at the Cisco Seattle office for 10 years after they acquired Active Voice. The culture of the Active Voice company continued to permeate the Cisco Seattle office for the people working on Unity and Unity Connection. Great people, who care about their employees.

Cons

The corporate headquarters are in San Jose, and Seattle is a small branch office. At times the reasons behind decisions made in San Jose were not clear to the Seattle staff.

Pros

I spent 16 of my 20 years of professional experience at Cisco in Bangalore. It was a great experience, during which I saw the company evolve from the startup kind of culture to that of a large corporate.

Cons

Not many to talk about, given the duration of my stay.
