Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

Expose them

Cisco could be brought into the election topics. It would be a great way to expose the leadership of the company for what they are. Either side, or both, would have some issues with Cisco.

  1. How Cisco treats people.
  2. Offshoring while garnering huge federal and state contracts

Many other issues and a few that are devastating but not to be mentioned here for national security reasons.

Get the candidates to know about Cisco. Send them info.

Yes, the company whose worldwide revenues are 0.2% of the US GDP is the sole cause of this. Go get 'em!

As an American I can say Americans don't respond to protectionism by regrouping and becoming more competitive, we try to charge more for the same cr-p while we still buy better quality foreign goods.

Cisco is hardly the only company using LRs as stock boosts and board pleasing. Many companies have been doing it for years. All the hand-wringing in the world won't change that. And politicians? They only care about getting big donations and PAC money. They are too busy dividing, conquering and wasting our tax dollars to notice anything else.

Success is the best revenge. If you aren't LRd, get the he-l out soon and find a company that matches your expectations, salary requirements, benefits and WLB. It can be done. Not easy, but it CAN be done. But only if you take steps to do so.

Lizard people.

By that I don't mean literal lizard people. They think with their reptilian brains, no conscience. Snakes in Suits. They are soulless bags of organic material that only seek to benefit themselves.

As incomprehensible as they are to normal people, we baffle them as well. Empathy is confusing to them.

They are typically undone by their arrogance. They always over-reach.

I'd go beyond candidates.

Contact your local press, congressman, state officials (AGs), and so on.

Cisco is a dirty company and investigations are long overdue.

"With most large corporations doing this and all large corporations bribing lawmakers via 'campaign' donations, nothing short of rioting in the streets about this will have any effect.

Focus your efforts on things that can be changed."

It's afraid.

I agree that there is a security risk involved in employing foreign nationals. Even if areas are separated, there is a possibility that offshore staff will have backend access to sensitive data.

Some of the people here are delusional. Which candidate is going to fight for the high earning tech worker getting laid off after quiet quitting for years.

People like you are the reason there is layoffs. Get off your high horse.

I wish Cisco had productivity software and sued you for time theft.

"#1 place to work."

No serious person believes that. Pay to play.

Politicians will be delighted:

How Cisco treats people.

#1 place to work.

Offshoring while garnering huge federal and state contracts

I was reading here that we close down all our China offices.

Citizens from adversarial or very corrupt nations are the issue.

Which issue?

I would think that having so many non citizens working for a company that serves the most sensitive areas of our government is an issue.

So, you think a Cisco with more US citizen employees is a concern to governments worldwide? It will be difficult to sell our stuff.

Doesn't Cisco provide voip for the Senate? Another area of concern.

The execs hanging out with globalists is yet another one. Blackrock, WEF, not a group I'd want to have access to networks passing top secret data.

You can be a whistle blower just like the Facebook whistle blower especially if you have any evidence of national security violation.

Gov't isn't going to do anything about LRs. They have been lying about new jobs for over a year now and finally got caught in August. Wake up, that's what you voted for

"BTW please list the number of other fortune 500 companies that will give you a 6 month severance when they kick you out. It's not long"

Most Fortune 500 companies don't kick you out after they hire you and relocate you to San Jose.

lol Cisco must have been the only job you've ever had in corporate america if you think they're somehow unique with layoffs.

The blank check government contracts while offshoring should be exposed. At least Lockheed Martin & Boeing hire Americans with their blank check contracts
