Suppose I ask my manager for LR somewhere after mid September but get a job before due date within the company. Am I still getting severance package?

- You can’t ask to be on the LR list. Quite often your direct manager has no control or idea who is on it until the get the update for their organization.
- There is no LR package if you find another job at Cisco. And no package if you leave before the separation/LR date.
Csco getting acquired Amazon would be blocked by anti trust because all the major competitors of Amazon would go out together to governments
Maybe Broadcom?
That is right, if you come back within 12 months, need pay back your severance (prorated). BTW, you may not be able, because cisco may be acquired by Amazon.
If you get an internal job before being LR'd, you don't get the severance because you were not LR'd and started in a new role.
If you were LR'd, you are blacklisted for 6 mo. You cannot rejoin without a VP or higher approval. I don't know if you have to pay back the severance package, or a prorated portion for the length of time your effective start date to the effective end date of the severance pay, or if you get to keep the entire severance package as I was not allowed to come back during the blackout period.
I had a manager try to get me back on his team (different than the one that LR'd me), and opened a case with HR around 45 days after I was notified (15 days after I was terminated), but his VP would not approve the exception. I did rejoin about 9 months later on that same team and I did not have to give back any severance money because it was after the blackout period and the severance package duration.
Thanks a lot @cisco geek

That is after the layoffs.

No. Even if you get rehired within one year, you need to pay back your severance in lieu.
