Cons
Calix is growing up with significant growth in recent years resulting in lots of change, the fast paced environment may not be for everyone. Priorities can shift often as the company reacts to market and product changes. Being a global company, work/life balance can also be impacted if you don’t manage accordingly. However work from home flexibility allows for you to own your schedule to some degree. Like any other company too many meetings can be a problem although Calix has implemented several initiatives to avoid meetings company wide on designated days.
