I don't work for a Cisco Channel Partner, so I cannot share any personal
experience, but from
http://www.cisco.com/web/learning/le3/ccie/employers/index.html :

"Cisco limits the recruiting of CCIEs from one partner to another

Because of their expert skills and experience, CCIEs are in demand among
Cisco's channel partners. To limit the adverse impact of losing a key staff
member, Cisco's Gold and Silver Channel Partner Program sets policy
regarding hiring CCIEs away from other Cisco Channel Partners.
In general, the program rules prevent a reseller who hires a CCIE away from
another reseller, from using that CCIE to qualify for Gold or Silver status
for a period of 12 months. More information can be found in the Gold and
Silver Program Policy
Document<http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/765/tools/cpapp/audit_doc.pdf>in
Appendix D, Section 4 "CCIE Policies" or by contacting Partner
Support <http://ciscopartner.custhelp.com/>."
