Pros

good coworker, some good technologies good engineers

Cons

Cisco now is place great for middle level manegement and up (director and up). These extreme ambitous managers move around different BUs, divisions, imprint their styles and leave for better opportunity to go up. What these mean to rank and file is constant change for no good reason, very counter productive. Cisco now is all about manage up, what your manager's preception of you is all that matter. Even if you suck but your manager like you, you will be fine. This manage up culture is a chain reason, stupid decision from the no clues extreme ambitous executives trump any grassroot common sense. That's why Cisco sucks so much in the last 2 years. The remote work center seriously back fire, it is one of the most counter productive idea in Cisco.
