What are the benefits of Cisco?

#WeAreCisco, where each person is unique, but we work together to make a difference by powering an inclusive future for all. We believe in digital and assist our customers in making changes to their digital enterprises. Some may assume we're "ancient" (we've been around for 36 years) and solely deal with hardware, but we're also a software firm. There's also a security firm. We even created a network that adapts, predicts, learns, and protects itself. You can't put us in a box since no one else can do what we do!

However, without a culture that encourages innovation, creativity, and yes, even failure, "Digital Transformation" is just a buzzword (if you learn from it.)

We concentrate on the give and take on a daily basis. We give our all, set aside our egos, and give of ourselves (because giving back is built into our DNA.) We accept responsibility, take risks, and value diversity. Because there can be no progress without a diversity of views and a commitment to equality for all.

So, you've got a lot of different colors in your hair? It makes no difference to me. Tattoos? Show off your tattoos. Do you like polka dots? That's great. Are you a pop culture nerd? Many of us are in this situation. Do you have a passion for technology and the way the world is changing? With us, you can be yourself! You Belong Here!
