"Cisco is a great company to work for and afforded me many opportunities to grow my career both internally and externally. Their training programs and the experience/level of individuals that work with you on a day to day basis is one of the main reasons I worked there for so long. I would highly recommend them as both a starting career and as a long term growth opportunity."

"I love Cisco. Like many involved in the company downsizing and centralization - my time as a contractor comes to a close. Though sad to be departing - I can't speak highly enough of the team that I worked with. Intelligent, caring and dedicated, they produce an enormous amount of work and we all work so well together. A high point of my career and I hope to be able to return someday."

"I found the last project with Cisco as fulfilling in terms of career growth. I've learned a lot from Cisco senior engineers that I have supported during the migration with Citibank. Citibank having more than 20,000 employees in ASPAC alone gave my experience in voice a big boost, and I have attained more self-esteem in terms of solving and troubleshooting Cisco Voice technology."

"Cisco is a great company, and treats all its employees nicely. Cisco experience was pleasant and gave me the chance to expand and try new Frameworks. I learned much more than I predicted in the time period I was with them. The company is set up that it will give any employee the chance to learn and apply new technology. It has very good structure and the company is looking for the next new thing all the time."

"I worked for Cisco for 7 years. Some years were good and some years were not. Managers at Cisco do not help you in your career growth. Also the way the company rates people on a curve creates competition between its workforce."
