For a contrary perspective, this wasn't my experience with being acquired by Cisco. I had my issues with the process, but I felt well-treated throughout and was never lied to.

Agreed. I was also part of the Kenna acquisition after being there for 2 years and am still there.
My equity got paid out quickly, I have since gotten raises and bonuses, and the only shittiness has been all the mega-corp nonsense (omg the trainings) and worse health insurance.
Cisco is not a nightmare acquirer, that would be Amazon. If AMZN had acquired us I'd have left immediately.
