I am working as a Contractor in Cisco, but still, they show no difference between the contractors and the permanent employees. Excellent work culture and the employees are very helpful to bring you up to the track once we join. Wonderful work-life balance and compensation. Would love getting a permanent role in Cisco. Still, not yettime to comment about Appraisal as i joined recently, but for me as a senior, it doesn't make much difference as the perspectives change after a certain years of experience :)...Read More

Volunteering opportunities and self paced learning
The Managers are not well trained in their new roles, I faced severe discrimination from an African American Manager. Absence of clear goals and objectives and micromanagement and no development discussions in my case. They throw you like a vegetable if you raise your voice… so I am not sure of what inclusivity they refer to.

1. Cisco has a great work culture and their programs for employee care is unparalleled. 2. One can learn a lot using their complimentary access to a host of portals from Udemy to LinkedIn Learning to Cisco Networking Academy 3. The product management practice is well defined 4. Work from home option 5. Internet reimbursement 6. Pay is on par with other big MNC 7. RSU and ESOP plans are attractive
1. Job Security - at least 2 or 3 limited restructuring takes place per year 2. Work life balance can sometimes take a hit due to pressure - again it depends on teams/managers 3. Employee medical insurance for India needs to improve in terms of networked hospitals for cashless payment
Work policy: once a fortnight in office or as needed basis

Great culture, excellent work-life balance. Generous time-offs, flexible working.
No job security, frequent restructuring resulting in job cuts. No regular hikes. Difficult to get promoted beyond senior engineer level.

Great culture, nice people, all round employee benefits. They care not just about employee, but also your whole family, insurance is great, has a health care within office, good doctors, great Gym's, cafeteria is awesome. Lot of sports facilities and supportive culture.
Work wise since its a big organisations, you should be lucky enough to get good work, else its mostly maintaining and adding few features on already existing code base. But they do support you with learning, for that you need to spend extra hours apart from your daily job to learn extra.

Excellent company at top level, better than service companies and also many product companies
Some projects use legacy tech and also many old timers are simply coasting with no updation and hence full pressure on new lateral folks

I like the Campus and work culture at Cisco.
Until you resign, managers will not recognize your worth. Pay is less when compared with competitors. Promotions happen rarely. Managers will not allow you to take leaves.

Slow paced environment. Good WLB. Pretty good job security if you work in a product which makes revenue.
Very poor career growth. Below market salaries and no hike/promotion for high performers. No encouragement for better performance. Mix of average and poor quality engineers, not a good place for people who are ambitious about their careers.
