Work culture
Cisco needs only a reason to party. On the last day of every month, we have a monthly birthday bash, with all the people whose birthdays fall in that month cutting a big cake. Once a project is completed, the entire team goes out for a party, sponsored by Cisco, of course. The last such party happened on July 1 at Barbecue Nation, and had plenty of food, booze and fun. People leaving Cisco get a farewell party as well!
The people
The people here are as crazy as they are sweet.
This happened to me on my second day at Cisco. I walked into the men's room, and at that moment, all the three urinals were occupied, and so I had to wait. My mentor, Hafeez, was one of the occupants. He saw me walk in, turned back and said "Come, lets share"!
My manager Dharmendra's boss, Shanthi Iyer was in India one day, and visited our office. As soon as she entered, the team gathered around her for her pep talk. Dharmendra was still in his room supervising a P1. Shanthi noticed his absence, and shouted across the hall - "Dharmendra, mere bhai!"
On my last day at Cisco, my manager Dharmendra took me out for lunch. On the previous day, the Engineers there had arranged a small farewell party for me, and I got to cut a cake with "Good bye Prashant" written on it. And here are some sweet emails that I got from the people at Cisco on my last day.
