Expected to work ALL hours of the day. No respect for people's time even if you have children. I laugh when I hear about "Best Places to Work" My team is a corporate sweatshop. Everyday we are expected to work until 1AM+ when our day starts at 8AM. This isn't happening before a release these hours are everyday! Call me crazy if I actually want to pickup my child, feed her, and take care of her.
My wife is a single parent after I started working for Cisco because I am ALWAYS working.
Horrible business processes, horrible quality of data, and horrible workarounds that cause more issues with the data.
Never in my life have I ever seen managers yell and degrade their employees. I haven't had that directed towards me, but I've been in meetings and witnessed this. I've seen managers yell at employees who want to go home when it's 9PM and they are IN THE OFFICE with NO DINNER when his or her day started at 8AM. This is not a third world country!! Some managers need to stop this mentality!!!!
Way overly complicated processes and offshoring to India doesn't help matters. It takes weeks to deal with Cisco's customer support which is in India for simple issues or questions that should be a matter of minutes.
