Does Cisco do salary negotiation?

I am in my final year of engineering and I got an offer from Cisco for the role of Software Engineer which I have accepted. After seeing the Bangalore's astronomically high deposit and rent I wanted to know does Cisco pays this relocation bonus in advance of joining as I won't be able to afford to pay for deposit of flats upfront? Thanks in Advance

CCTC: 22LPA ( 5% variable) YOE : 8.5 Offered CTC : 29LPA ( fixed pay) + 10% variable+ 25K USD RSUs(4 years vesting period) + JB 1.5L + Relocation bonus 1L + 10L free medical insurance. Tech stack: L2 L3 protocols, python Current company: Cisco

How to negotiate properly? Anytime we could get to do it on our CCTC or the holding offer (2-3L extra). But if I feel the company could pay more than it + my skills are worth it. How to put that out? Many times I get to see a response that your numbers are high compared to your current CTC / max we can give 2L more than your holding offer not more than it. Example: CCTC : 10LPA, holding : 15LPA, mostly HRs try to settle me at 17LPA max. But through some research if I see the same companies are paying somewhere between 18-22LPA, so I can get offered 22LPA also right! So in such cases how to know the range of hiring? how to negotiate to maximum(realistically) without any regrets and get the best, especially when I am expecting a 100% hike or more?. Does interview performance affect salary? Pour your input guys.

Completed 3 years at Cisco this month as a Hardware Engineer, joined straight out of a tier-2 college in 2021. Over my 3 years, what I've learnt is that Cisco is just riding on the monopoly it has in the networking space. There's basically no innovation when it comes to Router hardware, and we basically reuse existing designs, packaging them as "newer and better" products. No risk, no Ishq 🙁 There's absolutely zero investment in R&D, and any new feature that gets added to the products only comes in after one of the competitors launches them, keeping Cisco behind in the game. If Cisco keeps going like this, I'm sure the likes of Arista and Juniper will over us in the next couple of years, even with the new "Silicon One" that Cisco's promoting. PS: I can only speak from a Hardware PoV, and I'm not quite updated with what's going on with Cisco's SW offerings.

Guys, need a quick descriptive help here. I applied to the position of senior profile for which in 1st round only they gave asked youe CTC expectation and at what CTC you will not go beyond. I shared my CTC and after 3 days I got an mail stating that my candidature got rejected because they will not be able to pay that CTC which is market standard that i asked. Now, i want to work in that company because profile is good and will help to draft my career and i am ready to decrease my CTC expectation also. My problem is how do I portray over mail and what pointers i should be adding to convey them to consider my profile for next round of interview as i am ready to work at lesser CTC (asked 3x of my curent CTC when lastly was discussed). Note: HR didn't asked my my current CTC . She directly asked expectations and at what CTC you will not go beyond. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!

Hi, Has anyone ever negotiated salary around few days before joining? A friend has gotten an offer from Palo Alto Networks. He has signed and placed his resignation in his current company. But during notice period he got another offer with higher base salary. I'm wondering since the offer was already signed with Palo Alto Networks, could we negotiate again? Would it cause any problems? Has anyone ever done this before? If so, appreciate your suggestions.
