      Not a good place for women

      Pros

      -The pros of this job really do not outweigh the cons. Subsidized parking and free lunch don't really do much when you're being gaslighted by poor management.

      Cons

      -The bro culture -The bullying work environment that has gone unchecked by Cisco and management -The inability of management to hold any male employees to account. -This company goes out of it's way to not manage any situation and downplay major issues. -The ability for male employees to harass women, voice obscene opinions, and a poor HR team that is essentially worthless and defers everything to greater Cisco. -The "fake it 'til you make it" mentality that does more harm than good. -The abrasive way employees talk to each other here, and are allowed to treat certain team members is appalling. It goes largely unchecked. -Don't be fooled by the fake 5 star reviews, the hype is not real. This is a poor place to work and epitomizes what is wrong with tech jobs in San Francisco.

      Looks good from the outside - Total mess on the inside!

      Pros

      Although there is high turnover, they have good executive leadership, particularly the CEO. Strong suite of WiFi products, their flagship product line.

      Cons

      Weak mid-level management. Lots of younger, millennium type employees with very little real-world experience and way too much influence, effectively producing chaotic and/or non-existent processes and feckless results. Consequently, with the exception of the product engineering teams, lots of chaotic energy is expended and little is accomplished.

      Terrible Leadership

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Sales people looking at Meraki, turn around. great product, sells itself thats about it

      Cons

      We had our SKO today and leadership was singing songs about how there is nothing to ship and making jokes for 30 minutes about it. Not all of Meraki is sitting on 350k+ salaries, very bad taste and disrespectful to hard working sales people who are grinding to hit your numbers for you. You are losing employees every day. - no shipments = no commission - customers buying ecommerce - 2 openings per team company wide, turnover is so high - managers leaving a record pace - CEO and exec leadership come out to speak once a month if that - zero transparency on what is going on, we are on our own - Quotas going up every quarter with the same exact pay, worst in industry - have to cover for your peers territories who quit and dont get paid on it
