Cisco Systems
Cisco Systems is a San Jose–based tech conglomerate that makes much of the gear used to power the Internet. Cisco manufactures and sells networking hardware and software, as well as telecommunications equipment and other technological services. Cisco operates through its many successful subsidiaries, acquired since its founding in 1984, with Webex, Jabber, and Jasper among them. In 2021, Cisco was recognized by employees for its response to the pandemic, in which leadership made significant strides toward ensuring its workforce was well cared for, such as making sure a mental health professional was present at company meetings.
