Deciding between Cisco and Cisco Meraki for final internship (both Frontend full stack stuff oriented). I’m going to the place that has the highest chance of a return offer. I want to be employed when I graduate soon so this decision will be my last with the hopeful conversion from intern to full time. TC: intern hourly pay 25/hr YOE: 1 year (internships) #tech #intern #fulltime #Cisco #DoNotWantToBeUnEmployedAfterSchool
In this market, better to take a bank than tech. Check other posts here on blind many interns in cisco are crying cuz their internship didn’t convert. Our CEO recently in an all hands said more budget cuts and even more strict scrutiny on shit that cost money to company in any way. So unless you don’t want to live in fear of no offer or layoff. I’d say wells fargo seems better. If however you want to join Cisco, go for Meraki. Still a better BU than any of the other Cisco BUs in general.
Not Cisco. We’re fucked. Spending billions of People Purpose bullshit instead of managing current workstack, improving our core architecture or innovating. Cisco is where careers go to die. Finance all the way.
that TC looks too low, as far as i know interns are paid $30+/hr
Depends on BU what area ? Also location?
What 25$? We were getting 50-54/hour lol. Also they barely do return offers
For Meraki?

There’s no more Meraki. It’s all Cisco now and it’s all shit. Constant fear of layoffs is part of the culture and they force you to take 8 days of PTO for mandatory shutdown during the most expensive travel times of the year: Christmas and 4th of July
Bruh, should I have taken Wells Fargo intern offer instead? Man I just want to be employed after school.
Not true. Yes. Haven’t do the mandatory pro like everyone else but Meraki is a great place to work and one of/if not the best bu in Cisco. Better salaries and awesome culture still
