We are grateful for your feedback on your experience as a Calix employee. We take pride in our employee health, lifestyle and wellbeing benefits. We are glad that you are enjoying them as well! When working with others across the globe, time zones can make it difficult to connect during standard business hours. We are committed to continuing to discuss how we can ‘create, communicate and collaborate’ and minimize the impact on personal lives. We value feedback around management and will be hosting focus groups locally to further discus and identify action plans.
