Pros

Calix is an excellent company to work for. I am very optimistic about Calix's future and have nothing but great things to say about the culture and the team I'm surrounded by. Here are a couple highlights: -Work from anywhere culture -Robust onboarding that includes virtual coffee chats with the executive team -Being part of a company that is closing the digital divide and making a impactful difference on how people live , learn and work. -Competitive compensation package which includes unlimited PTO, great benefits, and an unparalleled stock purchase plan -Great internal learning resources (ExecOnline/Coursera) to support employee growth and advancement

Cons

Some people may say that there is an extensive interview process (I had 9, 30 minute interviews), but I think that is important for Calix to vet the candidate and vice versa. I enjoyed meeting the greater Calix team as part of my interview process. Secondly, as others have alluded to, there is a meeting heavy culture here at Calix, but it helps keeps teams aligned and focused on delivering the best customer experience.

Pros

I have been very pleasantly surprised at the level of employee development available at Calix. There are myriad resources to learn new skills and sharpen existing ones. Pathways to advancement are clear and well communicated. Leadership is very supportive of advancement. Compensation package is excellent. Calix's extremely thorough hiring process does lead to high quality coworkers.

Cons

Dealing with Global Supply chain issues, obviously not Calix's fault, and Calix is doing an excellent job at managing them, but it is definitely a challenge.
