Who We Are

#WeAreCisco, where each person is unique, but we bring our talents to work as a

team and make a dierence powering an inclusive future for all.

We adopt digital, and help our customers implement change in their digital businesses.

Some may think were old (36 years strong) and only about hardware, but were also

a software company. And a security company. We even invented an intuitive network

that adapts, predicts, learns and protects. No other company can do what we do you

cant put us in a box!

But Digital Transformation is an empty buzz phrase without a culture that allows for

innovation, creativity, and yes, even failure (if you learn from it.)

Day to day, we focus on the give and take. We give our best, give our egos a break,

and give of ourselves (because giving back is built into our DNA.) We take

accountability, bold steps, and take dierence to heart. Because without diversity of

thought and a dedication to equality for all, there is no moving forward
