Where did you get this as news, Ask Jeeves?

It’s almost everywhere. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/02/14/business/cisco-to-lay-off-thousands/index.html

This is old news. This happened two weeks ago.

So Rajesh can hire more of his family

What’s this funny story 🙂

Oh Cisco is notorious for nepotism in hiring. They don’t hire normally. You need to know someone to get hired. Typically a dad/mom will hire their son or daughter either as an intern or full time. I know like a dozen such cases. I know a person who was hired as a VP just over a simple lunch call. No interviews :) because they knew the hiring manager.

Heard they gutted Meraki. Dumb choice by a dumb leader

Gutted sounds like a strong term. The layoff dot com seems to suggest otherwise.

Memories of working at Cisco live on in ttvbk’s mind. I hope I can leave any thoughts of this place far behind
