Supporting Employee Work-Life Integration

Cisco supports a flexible workplace and recognizes that how, when, and where people want and need to work is rapidly and continually changing. As a result, we invest in tools to enable flexibility for our entire global workforce and have become a recognized leader in using technology to help employees balance work, family, and personal responsibilities. Although Cisco’s employee population is geographically dispersed, work-life integration at Cisco is further supported by our strong common corporate culture, values, benefits, and programs.

Work-Life Integration

Flexibility, trust, and empowerment are the hallmarks of the employee-employer relationship at Cisco.

We use technology to enable employees to easily work from home, access real-time business information, and collaborate with colleagues and customers at any time and in any place, helping to create a flexible work environment where geographic location and set work hours become less important. Flexible work schedules, including the ability to regularly telecommute, allow employees more control over their professional and personal lives.
