      Cisco has developed too many "big company" middle management habits.

      Pros

      Flextime, and ability to move about to different groups and job roles while staying in the same company. People are also very smart and talented.

      Cons

      Cisco has gotten too big and has lost control over its many organizations as a result each group operates more like a fiefdom regarding its basic employee policies, then an umbrella organization. Also it would be nice if telecommuting was allowed across the board, rather at whim of manager. Finally it would be nice if compensation model was more clear and applied across the board - somehow things got lost between CXO messaging and its application to each employee.

      Great company to work for overall; limited career advancement and rotation opportunities, little work-life balance

      Pros

      Overall great team spirit, result oriented flexible hours usually, professional environment of respect and trust, mobile working opportunities, reasonable benefits

      Cons

      some teams are bounded by the old working from office mindset than the coporate mobile work culture; also not too many functions and job roles available within HK office. Also some started behaving in a more bureaucratic manner
