Pros

Cisco Systems is the leader in the Networking domain. Being part of SAVBU - the datacenter unit is very fortunate. It gives the benefits of a large company while the quality/quantity of the work remains that of a startup => you get to learn a lot of things and a lot of scope for personal development.

Cons

Since Cisco is a huge company, irrespective of how your BU performs, the hikes and the bonuses are most of the time normalized so that all the BUs are treated equally.
