Pros

Great culture - dog friendly, team bonding activities, etc. Really fun atmosphere to work in - standing desks, people always on the phones bringing energy up - it's an open floor, so you're not chained to a cubicle Product - honestly, the best on the market. I don't even work there anymore and I'd still say that.

Cons

Salary - Meraki wasn't able to compete with salaries being offered by other tech companies - and they weren't willing to budge. In the 2 years I worked there, Meraki had a lot of trouble keeping employees around because they weren't willing to offer higher OTE's. If you want to keep talent, you have to compete financially. Monotony of the job - working through partners can make you feel like you're doing the same thing, day to day...click, approve, collect PO. Employee Attrition - not good. Lots of people have left and Meraki hasn't done much to incentivize those to stay.

Pros

pretty amazing office space lots of great employee perks apart of a small start up with funding of larger company

Cons

There is no flexibility to work remote even though it is apart of a telecom company who specializes in video communications. Pay is pretty low for the Bay Area Decentralized departments so there is not a lot of cross collaboration between teams

Pros

Solid product and great people with the backing of Cisco Systems. Great office with some nice perks as well.

Cons

Your success is almost completely based on the territory and the “Cisco team” you inherit. The days of the sales floor hitting 150-200% are over, yet a lot of the leadership team still acts like this is the norm. It’s not. Newer Senior leadership which seems lost and disconnected in the last 18 months and it’s been mostly down hill. Tons of attrition (top performers + top management), talks of big changes and pay increases have been nominal and fall flat. It’s clear it’s about the process here, make it repeatable and easy to plug in play AE’s. The majority of this sales team, management team and leadership team, seem to know that it’s hard to impact this business and this creates a stagnate environment where it is hard to grow or push yourself.
