      Pros

      Every year Cisco is ranked #1 places to work and working there you immediately see why. The community is great, benefits are as well. The culture there is super inclusive and the work life balance for most of the people I encountered was always balanced.

      Cons

      The layoffs/ restructuring. Cisco does layoffs a few times a year and it is a very stressful and nerve wrecking time.

      Great culture and benefits, but leadership lacks direction
