There is more money and less stress beyond Cisco.
I'm sure there is, but there's a lot worse places too.
I joined a smaller company that had just been bought out by a much larger company. Sort of like what Cisco does with smaller companies that have some innovative thing the larger company can no longer create.
The small company was too used to flying by the seat of their pants and wing it. The only process they had was to make everyone track their time and log it to a case so it could billed to a customer. I went in as a Senior Tech Lead. The director would frequently come by my desk looking for a junior admin who sat by my desk and was never around when needed by the director. The director would then ask me to perform whatever work she was looking to have the junior guy do and WOULD STAND WATCHING OVER MY SHOULDER UNTIL IT WAS DONE!
My first performance review by my manager was that I wasn't performing to their expectations of a senior technical lead. I responded that I didn't have time to do tech lead work because I was too busy mentoring some of the new people who couldn't do what they were hired for, too busy doing the work of the guy who was never at his desk, that my manager wasn't performing at the level of a manager because he wasn't replacing the non-working guy with someone who would actually work, and that the director wasn't performing at the level of a director because she was too busy micromanaging his staff that they couldn't do the work he was assigning them.
To top that off, there was the stress of transitioning between our cloud provider and the larger company's data centers. The team providing our new servers didn't bother to talk with our development teams to get an understanding of our platforms requirements. Our customer testing lab where we had actual customer equipment couldn't communicate with the data center infrastructure because they put a firewall on our new office's gateway that blocked all outbound network traffic except ports 80 & 443. Not everything is web based!!!! Dumping Exchange and MS Office for Google Suite and making the transition occur piecemeal caused so many problems. And the learning curve!
I left them to return to Cisco and I'm making more than I was before, and I have less stress and less responsibilities and I'm respected. I hope that company is more the exception than the rule, because it's sad to be happier at a company that can let you go any year with no appreciation of what you've done for them for 3, 5, 10, 15 or more years.
