Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

Will CSCO be a hypocrite as a US Gov Contractor?

Remember during the pandemic when CSCO was about to forcibly put people who didn't get the jab on unpaid leave? The reason stated by legal was that since CSCO is a government contractor, they have to abide by federal rules. That stance was dropped after the courts shot down the mandate. Will they stick to that excuse given that DEI has been banned from the federal government now? I doubt it nor will leadership ever apologize.

Just do a recursive search through cisco.com and see how many times the terms DEI, diversity, equity, and inclusion appear. Or just look at the Cisco's latest slogan "inclusive future for all". Is that what the DOD wants to invest in?

Well let's see if they follow those same rules if the US Gov requires the removal DEI from government contractors.

They are paying if you sued.

Cisco was not hypocritical. They were following the rules and guidelines. They changed positions with changing rules. You need to read beyond social media and biased news services to get informed.

Anyone who defends the jabs and thinks they cause no harm should make sure to get their quarterly boosters. I feel for those that were duped and trusted Big Pharma and hopefully now realize how this whole scam unfolded.

Forced the jab for us to sit at home, all to reverse their decision! There is actually tons of evidence that the jab was harmful including my spouse who never had heart issue before that jab.

Cisco will just rename DEI roles. They better also scrub the CCO website of all mentions of DEI, as they may search that also to see if your company is an "offender". I have heard of that happening when considering contracts now.

Ah yes, calling out medical experimentation crimes against humanity versus government imposed racial discrimination, and he's the loser.
