Cisco Software Engineer II salaries in Chennai

Likes

Great work life balance and team culture with lots of benefits. Good exposure to lot of different technologies.

Dislikes

Hikes are very minimal and non existent sometimes. Average salary is below the industry standard in product based companies. Lot of higher level management politics and frequent reorgs with directional changes. Not a company for people expecting high quality work and competitive pay.

Good HR

Dislikes

...'t let you start something new even though they promote trying new technologies. There's no fair compensation. No hikes or promotions. You're expected to slog day and night to be considered a valuable employee. Otherwise, you're sidelined and accused of not being part of the team.

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.

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.
