Pros

good place to work, lot of opportunities.A positive company that makes sure that their employees are apprecitated in an apporpriate way. Driving goals from top down to make sure all employees know what direction they are headed in. Cisco is a leader across many different sub-industries within IT: routing, switching, storage, VoIP, wireless, optical, application acceleration, etc. which allows sales engineers to gain a wide breadth of knowledge and exposure across many different technologies and products. Working with Cisco is very fast paced and you get to play with cutting edge technology that has not been released to the mainstream public yet. Cisco sales managers do no micromanage; they give their employees all the freedom and resources needed to get their job done.

Cons

nothing other then the fact that it is a hugeg company.

Pros

There are very good people at Cisco and comitted to customer success. The senior management is smart and understands the business. Benefits are good and overall compensation is on par with the industry. There are different opportunities to learn and grow in different technologies. Cisco is the leader in shaping the way the world communicates. It will be a great company for a long time.

Cons

Promotion opportunities are limited. You either have to have been here over 10+ years or have come in at the level you feel you are working at. Once inside, unless you have a guardian, performance with a combination of ability will not you get you very far.
