@YtTdf40-5rbi You left because you never got the promotion you backstabbed everyone around you to get. It's funny how no matter how much brown nosing you did, your managers could read that you were so full of BS. Anyways, the Cisco office you left is less sh--tier without you though. Thanks for doing everyone else a favor.

From the Beat:

AppDynamics Employee: “We haven’t had raises in 18 months”

Chuck is still out of touch. H etaks about the great stock price but fails to understand that Cisco only gives stock to 12 and up and limited 12s. Most will never reap any benefit from Cisco stock, except the Execs..

meantime arista has grown to a $2b company. it has lot of ex-csco people. so its not the people but the management and product strategy that is sorely lacking.

Left last year after 11 yrs. Got a 40% pay bump at VMware. Glad I’m out of there. Used to be great but the constant layoffs and low pay k--led morale.

Distract & divide is a common Cisco executive strategy. Talk about sustainability or volunteering if anyone asks about compensation. They want to avoid the topic due to their enormous stock grants.

At the recent leadership quarterly there was a HEAP of very strong feedback questions from managers about the compensation cycles (like - where have they gone?)

But what were the “leaders” talking about?

Recycling coffee cups and solar panels.

You couldn’t make this stuff up.

The honest and capable employees left 10 years ago. It's just the sleazy c---roaches now.

We just lost 2 of the most talented 10+ year people in GES because cisco is too cheap to pay them properly. 4 People I know have recently gone to vmware in the past 2 months because of pay increases.

people are smelling the future and walking out in a slow and steady trickle, ie the honest and capable ones. 5 people have left my former small team of 20 in last quarter and more are looking.

if all you see if uncertainty and no personal growth in next 3-5 years, its better to leave for a place that values talent rather than managing bugcounts and lining the directors' pockets.

Seeing recently in CX Bangalore, people are leaving Cisco and joining outside because of good market value they are getting. That's really poor on Cisco part of inability to retain their important players.
