Cisco "Salary" Reviews

Likes

Great work-life balance. The ability to work from home depends on the team and is permitted if there is a genuine need. There are plenty of free resources available for skill development.

Dislikes

Due to recent layoffs, job security is uncertain. Promotions and salary increases have been impacted and are lower compared to other competitors.

I like the Campus and work culture at Cisco.

Dislikes

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.

Dislikes

I work in 5g SVI team in mobility BU. This is the worse team in Cisco. No work-life balance. The vibe is totally demotivating. You will be treated as a slave expected to work during weekend and late nights. Worse part our Sr Manager, Mr Uma Maheswar Rao promotes this work culture. Even though me and my colleagues working 18 hours eve ryday including weekends my manager keeps finding faults and keeps complains and gives huge lectures like an annoyed old man. We get calls to work during late nights and weekends to test and provide updates. <mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;"> He and other seniors play a lot of politics and always make us pay heavy price</mark>. Very unemotional peoples. There is no support no help nor any guidance here and still so much criticism. We gave bad feedback in company survey to hope things will get improve but he started shouting in open calls and force us to rewrite a positive feedback. Guys this place is actually hell so dont join here. My personal life with family, friends and girlfriend is a complete mess because of this team and the work culture by sr management. Do not want any human beings to go through the sufferings like I am. I also posted also in glassdoor 2 times but they remove my post. Hope not remove here....Read More
