Got an offer from Cisco, working through paperwork. Read news about recent Cisco layoffs. Can anyone confirm how the layoffs are at Cisco’s security group? TC ~170k
Run!!!
Security is a huge growth area. Good place to be at cisco
Cisco security grew double digit last quarter. I believe that is the place where you want to be.
Revenue -- Total revenue was $13.4 billion, up 6%, with product revenue up 7% and service revenue up 4%. Revenue by geographic segment was: Americas up 9%, EMEA up 7%, and APJC down 4%. Product revenue performance was broad based with growth in Security, up 14%, Applications, up 11%, and Infrastructure Platforms, up 6%.
I would never work there again. But good luck!!!
Security is Secured
Leadership vaccum and no one is interested technically
Ok. Layoffs happen. At every company. Cisco likes to adjust for their needs and get rid of dead weight. If you’re that worried about your skills and value then, don’t apply. If you aren’t that good then I’d worry. SBG and especially CSBG are areas of great growth. Things move fast. My take is this. If you’re top of your game even if you get LRd so what? You’ll have another job in no time and you’ll benefit from the amazing package LRs get.
If you're going to be anywhere in Cisco, security is one of them.
What level G8? And TC?
