Pros

The reviews you read accurately reflect the experience. People love working here, and the company does a great job communicating transparently with its employees

Cons

Growing pains. A lot of tenured people v very new people, so onboarding can take a while! You don’t get RSUs but they have a private ESPP offering that ends up being more lucrative than most big tech RSU programs

Pros

Everyone here is willing to help - no matter when, Customers seem to love Calix and rave about it. Team members actually act like a team. Management cares. They may be hard, but they do care.

Cons

There should be more in-person training. The remote (watch a video) is good, but that is not really training.

Pros

Calix found me via LinkedIn, and working here has been and will continue to be an absolute blessing. Top reasons: 1. Culture 2. Clear business purpose for each community we serve 3. Servant leadership across workgroups 4. Competitive compensation 5. Competitive benefits and perks

Cons

With company growth comes some levels of discomfort. Internal (and external) processes must adapt. New roles are being created to meet the new demands. I don't necessarily consider this a con, but I will include that here so prospective applications understand they will likely be asked to trailblaze within their role.
