      Pros

      Good pay with excellent benefits. Matching 401k, and ESPP for new hires.

      Cons

      Culture very click-ish and many new hires in sales is like a ces pool of friends and family. This bodes well if you are part of the "in crowd" and sucks if you aren't. Overall great company to work for!

      Pros

      After working for several antiquated companies in the business technology space, I have found the exception to that rule 🙌🏼 Cisco is leading many tech sectors globally which means selling their solutions is fun! As far as the work environment, I cannot stress it enough, everyone is genuinely helpful. I have never experienced anything like it and takes a minute to acclimate. The balance of males and females is a huge plus along with cultural diversity. Again,the previous tech companies I worked failed in all of these. The level of intelligence I am surrounded by daily at Cisco is astounding. Benefits are very generous. Work environment is healthy. Very happy to represent Cisco!

      Cons

      This is not a big con by any means... Initial training program can be rushed and will not fully prepare you for the seat you will eventually end up. Work hard, ask questions and keep a positive attitude. It all works out in the end.

      Pros

      - overall nice environment but can be stressful close to deadlines - flexible hours depending on your manager. - salary and benefits very good even in very expensive silicon valley.

      Cons

      NO diversity. I feel I am working in India. No offense to Indians as I have lot of Indian friends but I prefer a diverse environment.
