Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Cisco is taking steps to evolve how we approach workforce transitions allowing choice and time, where possible. Just as there's diversity with our portfolio, there are a diverse set of ways in which Cisco contributes externally that are in-line with our values and are core to our corporate social responsibility. We have an ongoing process of aligning our investments and resources to meet the evolving needs of our customers and partners. We will always offer our full support to impacted employees.

Pros

None. If I could give it 0 stars I would.

Cons

Ancient technology. Nothing to learn there. Incompetent (non-existent) management. The least intelligent people are always put in charge of those that do the actual work. Never ending process of sweeping issues under the rug because "it's too hard or takes too long to do things the right way".
