      Pros

      I would generally sum up Meraki positives with the below. I would like to give it a 4/5 however dont feel the company is going in a positive direction and the lower score indicates this. It must be said however, for a few years it will be a very enjoyable few years you have. - Great culture - people are generally easy and enjoyable to work with - Good place to be for a few years to develop some experience and enjoy work at the same time - Values D&I - Not a lot of work related pressure (if you value that) - Nice office environment (if you are in one of the big Meraki office locations) - Generally a fun place to be (particuarly a few years ago, though thats diminishing year by year) It's certainly a much better employee experience in one of the larger offices than being remote or being in a small office. (Which can be a pro or con depending on where you are). While not having a full remote policy, it has been operating that way since COVID, and the org has been pretty accepting of peoples schedules and work/life situations.

      Cons

      The org continues to stroll along with a lot of the same problems year-year. Its a sales driven org that is a part of Cisco and is run seemingly for revenue generating purposes as a lot of fundamental things in other orgs such as L&D, career growth, coordinated HR teams etc are not adequately invested in nor built to any sort of scale. - Type of org you stay at max 3-5 years, unless you can move into other roles/teams, or become a people manager - Very little career opportunity in a lot of teams, and not too bothered about losing good people - It appears people feel disconnected from what used to be a very in-office culture since WFH was a thing - Middle-Senior Leadership aren't very capable at being true leaders (due to a lack of training? wrong people in the wrong roles?) - Sort of stuck between a rock and a hard place being an acquisition that can't chart much of its own course.
