#WeAreCisco

Happy Valentine’s Day! Love is in the air. Especially when you #LoveWhereYouWork! The second annual #WeAreCisco #LoveWhereYouWork contest is in full swing, and employees are CRUSHING on last year’s number of entries.

If you’re looking for something to watch on Netflix, might I suggest Jack Taylor? For you Game of Thrones fan, it stars the lovely Iain Glen, who plays a fired detective turned private investigator. My recommendation has everything to do with the fact that it’s set in Galway, Ireland, where I live…
