Why Cisco

#WeAreCisco, where each person is unique, but we bring our talents to work as a team and make a difference powering an inclusive future for all.

We embrace digital, and help our customers implement change in their digital businesses. Some may think we’re “old” (36 years strong) and only about hardware, but we’re 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 can’t 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 difference to heart. Because without diversity of thought and a dedication to equality for all, there is no moving forward.

So, you have colorful hair? Don’t care. Tattoos? Show off your ink. Like polka dots? That’s cool. Pop culture geek? Many of us are. A passion for technology and world changing? Be you, with us!

Lorsqu’elle est disponible, la fourchette salariale affichée pour ce poste reflète l’échelle d’embauche prévue pour les salaires des nouveaux embauchés aux États-Unis et au Canada. Pour les postes non liés à la vente, les fourchettes d’embauche reflètent uniquement le salaire de base; les employés sont également admissibles à des primes annuelles. Les fourchettes d’embauche pour les postes de vente comprennent la rémunération de base et la rémunération incitative. La rémunération individuelle est déterminée par le lieu d’embauche du candidat et par d’autres facteurs, incluant, sans s’y limiter, les compétences, l’expérience et les études, certifications ou formations pertinentes. Les candidats pourraient ne pas être admissibles à la fourchette salariale complète selon leur lieu d’embauche aux États-Unis ou au Canada. Le recruteur peut fournir plus d’informations sur la rémunération du poste dans votre lieu au cours du processus de recrutement.

Les employés américains ont accès à une assurance médicale, dentaire et visuelle de qualité, à un régime 401(k) avec une contribution équivalente de Cisco, à une couverture d’invalidité à court et à long terme, à une assurance vie de base et à de nombreuses prestations de bien-être.

Les employés reçoivent jusqu’à douze jours fériés payés par année civile, ce qui comprend un jour férié flottant (pour les employés non exemptés), plus un jour de congé pour leur anniversaire. Les nouveaux employés non exemptés accumulent jusqu’à 16 jours de congés annuels, à raison de 4,92 heures par période de paie. Les nouveaux employés exemptés participent à la politique de congés annuels flexibles de Cisco qui ne fixe pas de limite précise quant au nombre de jours de congé pouvant être pris par les employés admissibles. Cependant, cette flexibilité dépend de la disponibilité et de certaines contraintes opérationnelles. Tous les nouveaux employés sont admissibles aux congés de maladie, sous réserve de la Politique relative aux congés de maladie de Cisco. Ils auront droit à quatre-vingts (80) heures de congés de maladie à leur date d’embauche et le 1er janvier de chaque année par la suite. Jusqu’à 80 heures de congés de maladie non utilisées seront reportées d’une année civile à l’autre, de sorte que le nombre maximal d’heures de congé de maladie dont un employé peut disposer est de 160 heures. Les employés de l’Illinois bénéficient d’un programme spécifique de congés spécialement conçu pour répondre aux exigences locales. Tous les employés disposent également de congés payés pour faire face à des situations critiques ou d'urgence. Nous offrons des heures supplémentaires rémunérées pour faire du bénévolat et rendre service à la communauté.

0,75 % de l'incitatif cible pour chaque tranche de 1 % du chiffre d’affaires atteint jusqu’à concurrence de 50 % du quota;

1,5 % de l'incitatif cible pour chaque tranche de 1 % du chiffre d'affaires atteint entre 50 % et 75 %;

1 % de l'incitatif cible pour chaque tranche de 1 % du chiffre d'affaires atteint entre 75 % et 100 %; et lorsque le rendement dépasse 100 % d’atteinte, les taux incitatifs sont égaux ou supérieurs à 1 % pour chaque tranche de 1 % du chiffre d'affaires atteint, sans limites de rémunération incitative.

Pour les éléments de performance de vente non basés sur les quotas, tels que les objectifs de vente stratégiques, Cisco peut payer jusqu’à 125 % de l’objectif. Les plans de vente de Cisco ne prévoient pas de seuil minimum de performance pour le versement de la rémunération incitative pour les ventes.
