Pros

The cisco choice program is an excellent programs which gives the new grads the option of choosing the group that they want to work for. Also, being a large company, there are hundreds of internal opportunities and hence you need not look for a new job outside the company very often :-).

Cons

Being a large company, things are slow and old fashioned for the Gen-Y. Cisco is a marketing/sales driven company rather than a engineering driven company which makes things a little slower from technology perspective. Promotions and professional growth is slower as most of the management is made of technical leads who do not know much about managing people.
