      seniority means a lot at Cisco

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working on good technology. The benefits are great. Love the gym. Moving around within the company is great.

      Cons

      A lot of variation within the company. Some BUs are very laid back others are slave driving BUs. Too much cultural differentiation even inside Cisco. I think it's the result of too many acquisitions. I changed BUs 3 times so I know.

      Much to do as a designer at Cisco

      Interaction designer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Large company, many products, lots of opportunities and innovation. You could easily spend a lifetime at Cisco and never run out of challenges.

      Cons

      Product teams have a lot of leeway and don't necessarily hire designers. This can lead to an uncoordinated mass of multiple design directions, many driven by non-designers, throughout the company. More strength should be given to central design teams, and more teams should hire designers.
