- sangnoir 3y agoCisco has/had an outrageously large contractor contingent (this may be different between Business Units). That's a huge cultural difference between Cisco the tech giant sets
- ponector 3y agoAccording to some reports, only half of the people in Google are full time employee. Isn't it a large contingent of second-class workers?
- sangnoir 3y agoWhatever fraction it is at Google, I'm willing to bet Cisco's is significantly larger, especially on "core-business" teams whose work is mentioned in analyst calls
- cdchn 3y agoOrders of magnitude.
- cdchn 3y agoGoogle has a two-class system for employees. Cisco mostly eliminated the upper tranch of their two-class system.
- cdchn 3y agoCisco didn't need contractors they just shifted their workforce offshore wholesale. Source: former Cisco.
