Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

WHY IS CISCO FAILING? This quote from leadership says it all unfortunately

They state clearly they don't care about skills or experience. All they care about is if you kiss their fat behinds:

No one wants to innovate. Just shod alot of cr-ppy data. Create features just to create work. Keep putting junk code over existing junk code.

The psychology research tends to show people prefer confidence over competence. Why would Cisco be any different?

Muh feels. Like children. Keep kicking the mythical "EQ" around. What this really means is they want people who will coddle others. People have been infantilized and now this is been institutionalized. No one can get a good old fashioned a-s-chewing anymore, even if it is needed to grow or course correct. Childish.

So someone with technical and leadership capabilities plus soft skills and potential will eclipse someone who has plateaued? Shocking. No love for Cisco here, but you’re trivializing this to make it seem like attitude alone trumps years of experience.
