This is one of those questions where only you can tell..........
Although all of us on this list may be a bit prejudiced for all things
Cisco, you have to admit there are other things out there.
Nortel is a big player. Learning to use their equipment could probably
provide you just as rewarding a career as working with Cisco stuff.
Getting paid to learn stuff is always cool. Being able to progress is great
to.
If you're not working with Cisco now - and you don't have any Cisco
opportunities coming up - or you're just not happy with whatever it is
you're doing - then take it.
Internetworking is internetworking - it's all revelent down the line
somewhere.
Who knows, you might swerve back to Cisco later on.
