Cisco Systems Technical Lead in San Jose, CA:   (Current Employee)

Pros

You can balance personal life very well with job. Again, it depends on the which group you are working with. You can just plan to work for eight hours a day, rest is yours. Benefits are good compared to other same level of organizations.

Cons

Management is old-school. It is hard to convince the management some times, as they can not see the value in the innovations. For the same reason, management fail to asses/promote good resources

Advice to Senior Management

Fifty percent of the full-time employees in the IT department are way out-dated, and not fit for their duties/roles. Mr. Chambers team has to find a way to let the folks go who are not competent.
