Pros

The actual work and problems being solved are interesting. There is a flexible work from home policy in place that allows people to take time out when needed.

Cons

Lots of random unforeseen (and somewhat idiotic) changes coming down from Senior Leadership recently. Some of the decisions seem unexpected and bizarre. When questioned about it, they give generic answers that avoid answering the question at hand. The decisions also seem to have not involved our input at all and trust/morale among engineers is quite low, with many people openly considering to leave the company.

Pros

If you are early in career or transitioning, the NSE role is great way to get your feet wet with networking. You have opportunities to learn more in other IT domains as well but not as intensely. When you are off, you are off. No being on call. There are tons of resources and opportunity for you to train and learn. The benefits are some of the best. If you work near a Meraki office, take the opportunity to go, it is worth it. The San Franciso office is the best. There is plenty of documentation public and internal facing. There is a process for handling cases that have no documentation which is very nice. You are not alone on this job ever.

Cons

Being an NSE day to day can become tedious. Most customers are fine, but you will eventually run into one that is difficult to work with. Everything is based on your stats like talk time and customer satisfaction which can be problematic at times. I left because there were no opportunities to move on to a different role. Cisco proper is pulling in the reigns tightly on Meraki, so the culture is changing not for the better. Being in the call queue all day can be tedious especially when it gets backed up and you do not get your scheduled down time. In the US you will have to work weekends occasionally unless you get someone to cover which is becoming harder and harder due to change in overtime policies.
