Pros

Have Internet Access? Work anywhere. Cisco has a great set of core values The working environment is positive. Cisco employees are professional and results oriented. There is a healthy amount of rewards and recognition Cisco takes corporate social responsibility seriously. I enjoy having time to volunteer and giving back to the community representing Cisco

Cons

Annual Layoffs - Cisco is bleeding top talent and top talent would think twice about joining this company. Needs to get smarter around hiring practices as to limit the annual layoff trend. Change Fatigue - It is really unclear if the Cisco Strategies work because Cisco is in a constant rate of change. Executive Leadership is very shy about making decisions or there is too much collaboration and not enough directive decision making.

Pros

Good name with large market share. Lots of talented employees. Compensation used to be very good although not anymore since the bubble burst in 2001.

Cons

Poor stock performance over the past 15 years. Little or no raises for many years. Company culture is no longer the typical American as it is mostly controlled by non-Americans.
