Cisco is a leading company

Pros

Cisco has a lot of resources and Subject Matter Experts available so that you can grow your knowledge base and be competitive. It's a great learning experience that is rarely matched in most companies.

Cons

As it is a big company, there will be a bit of red tape/bureaucracy. The politics can roadblock your career or program. Though this is apparent in all companies, Cisco does a better job on critical feedback that should help the individual's growth and awareness.

Great place to work, but big

Pros

If there's any piece of high tech going on, it's happening some place in Cisco. So many technical disciplines they are into. Some of the smartest people in their subject areas work at Cisco.

Cons

Cisco is a large company - there are many folks who have worked there 10+ years and have "settled in". Large number of siloed groups make decisionmaking and collaboration challenging. In the end they just wind up buying a company to get the stuff they need.
