A NO if you need immigration sponsorship

Pros

you get a chance to work on advance technologies and with some great minds

Cons

Cisco keeps doing regular silent layoffs which make prevents CIsco from filling immigration petitions like Green Card. People keep waiting for years to get their PERM processed. So if you are looking for a sponsor to file GC for you then CIsco is not a place for you. Save your Big American Dream!

Pros

Life and work balance and good benefit packages.

Cons

Everything else is horrible. Lots of employees mainly act as "police officers" and lots of other people work like slaves.

Sr. Manager

Pros

Used to be a great company, where the CEO was concerned about his employees. Today, all he cares about is the bottom line. Doesn't care about the health of the employees

Cons

Too political... Experience does not matter to this company. They only look at 20 or 30-year-olds with no experience and that will take that job at low-cost. All about the bottom line. People do not matter. Used to be a great company in the 90s, but all they look for now, is trying to cut costs anywhere they can
