Pros

Good pay, with some nice benefits, like a good remote access policy, free drinks, good cafeteria.

Cons

Cisco acquires all their companies. This creates "silos" where each company is still closely nit and not interacting with the rest of Cisco. This is commonplace, even among acquisitions that took play over a decade ago. It's hard, as an outsider to these groups, to get information out of them. Management needs to force their hands. Cooperation is not what it should be, even among people in the same department. Many employees have a view that if you can't do your work, it makes them look better.

Pros

Appreciating quality work (Depend on manager) Work from home option if needed Not too much of pressure, feasible dead lines. Open culture, can talk freely to upper management also. Openly accepting every once view. No such statement “Boss is always right”

Cons

They will accept the new idea, but enforcing it will be a big task, most time it will never happen. Most work for visibility
