      Cisco response, October 2019

      We appreciate all honest and relevant feedback, and no organization our size is perfect on every team no matter how much we aim for that. We will take the substance of the review back to our teams as we continue to strive to be a leader for empowering women in tech. We don't know if you're a current or past employee, but we've made so many strides in the last few years, with even bringing our executive leadership team to 50% women! If you're a current employee, please reach out to HR (either in-person or through our anonymous feedback system) to make sure we can address any current situations that need improving.
