6th Annual #WeAreCisco #LoveWhereYouWork Contest Winners!

The sixth annual #WeAreCisco #LoveWhereYouWork contest has officially come to a close, and Cisco employees have done it again! You have brought us into your homes over the past year, taken us on outdoor adventures, and shown that when you #LoveWhereYouWork – anything is possible!

With thousands of entries from employees showcasing why they love working at Cisco, each photo contributed to a $2 donation to Global Citizen, and we have over 60 stories that will be shared on the We Are Cisco blog throughout the year (as well as on the @WeAreCisco social accounts!)

Every year the core team and judges have one of the most difficult challenges in selecting the winners from the amazing entries that we get. It’s not a bad problem to have, and this year was no different. We were all working from home, so we were invited into the homes of many of our colleagues. As you see this year’s winning entries know that we consider you ALL winners and have loved seeing every moment that matters to you throughout the contest.

Now … drumroll, please!
