RecommendsPositive OutlookI have been working at Cisco Systems full-time for more than 3 years
Pros
* People: Great people to work with. By far the most amazing team I have worked with. By the way, I had left Cisco and, after 1 year, I came back because I loved working with my current group. The culture shift is refreshing. Be a part of it. * Products: Amazing range of products. And all of them are being inter-connected with one another leading to endless possibilities * Pace: Company is moving at light speed in developing/acquiring/integrating new technologies in networking and other areas. If you are in the right group, the pace is blinding (in a positive way)
Cons
* There are still some teams with very slow pace and not eager to change. But the culture is changing positively * No free food. We have free snacks though. But honestly, free-food is over-rated!
