Pros

Ability to work from near enough anywhere Work with some of the latest technologies and products Stable and debt free company

Cons

If you currently have a social life and want to keep it, don't work for Cisco - work/social life balance is pathetic. Salary does not match work load - Expectation to give too much personal time without reward. Too much micro empire building in management. It used to be a great place to work, a fun place to work, now it's just a place to work to pay the bills Too much focus on ePM - a lot of expense, back end systems, staff supporting a system/process that is totally time consuming and meaningless.

Pros

Vast amount of information and learning available to you. Technology Leader

Cons

One manager can derail your entire career if they have favorites they want to advance. Once you start in one sales organization as a systems engineer, services manager, etc. you are not considered to be carrying a bag. It is career limiting to go to Human Resources about any job roles and or management issues.
