Pros

Find the right team and you can get by doing very little real work.

Cons

Some teams don't care about things that happen outside their team (and will happily throw you under the bus when they asked you to do something yet gave you unreasonable deadlines to actually do it). Ironically, "cross team collaboration" was listed internally as the worst performing area within Engineering. Plenty of internal "marketing" about how good Cisco is doing for its employees (with superfluous "AMAs") yet they often don't listen to complaints submitted (or even read Glassdoor).

Pros

Free food Nice office and good view Smart engineers to work with

Cons

It's a known fact that some of the senior managers got promoted to their roles for reasons other than qualifications. This happened when upper management decided to improve diversity at Meraki which lead to having disqualified, inexperienced individual in some key roles such as senior management.

Thank you for sharing your concern. We want to assure you that, for all of our positions at Meraki, we follow a rigorous interview process that takes into consideration the knowledge, skills, and experiences needed to excel in the role. We conduct structured interviews and assess each candidates' responses based on set expectations of the role. A person's gender, race, age, ethnicity, creed, etc. is never considered as a qualifier for any of our roles. If you have more questions about this process, we encourage you to reach out to your manager. Part of our commitment to an inclusive culture includes encouraging this type of open dialogue around concerns you might have.
