ABSTRACT

Cisco Systems means advanced computer networks; it's the leading router and data networking design and manufacturing company whose equipment is virtually synonymous with the Internet. As of March of this year, Cisco employed about 8300 in the San Francisco Bay area. Recently they decided to expand operations with a new seven million square-foot, $1 billion campus that will house 20 000 workers, representing an additional 11 700 jobs. Given the scale, nature, and prestige of this new facility, it is one of the all-time great site selection prizes.
