Great place to work. Cisco needs more software companies like Appd - Anonymous employee AppDynamics Employee Review

The integration into Cisco was a little bumpy. An actual pro would be that you have a huge engine like Cisco behind you but Cisco can be a little “old world” thinking. The sales team at Cisco is bloated and tired. There are only a few shining stars so It’s sometimes a difficult union. Under appdynamics,, pay increases were better but Cisco is super super stingy when it comes to pay and stock. The hardware side is an easy sale. They have not really grasped that the software side is a different animal. Ive now been pulled into the Cusco machine where meetings are about throwing 20 things at a customer to see what sticks without any planning. companies like amazon, google, Microsoft (you name it) throw stock at employees to keep the talent ... Cisco doesn’t seem to care and has never learned from other tech companies. talent easily fades away. If they ever figure this out they will be an amazing company.
