Managers are generally open minded and encourage asking tough questions and challenging the status quo. Industry Leader. Still a growth company. Compensation and benefits are excellent.

There are significant leadership and strategy changes as we adapt to different markets. Many projects we work on are started and stopped haphazardly by product marketing or senior leadership.

- Compensation and benefits are excellent. For instance, the medical and dental package is 2nd to none and much better than most other comparable companies. - Free soda / water for employees and guests. - Decent cafeteria food (albeit a bit pricey). - There are less meetings occurring on a daily basis than there were while I worked at "Big Chip Inc". - Cisco reimburses many costs in a more expedited manner than most larger companies in my opinion. - Folks are intelligent. They even wash their hands when exiting the restroom (believe it or not many at "Big Chip Inc" didn't. ew...). - Nice grounds. Well-cut grass, nice benches, the whole 9-yards. - Telecommuting is common. Really saves on gas and drive times =).
