Pros

Calix seems to be on track to meet its vision for the future, providing customers with tools necessary to monetize their subscriber networks and reduce expenses. Employment on the Calix team includes the many benefits of working with others who are chosen as right fit, have been groomed to lead within their areas of expertise, and trained to govern our outsourced partners well. Being a highly distributed company we adjusted with ease to the Coronavirus work from home restrictions, working with remote and multi-site resources is what we already did.

Cons

None really, if an open position looks like a good fit and you are up for the challenge then you should apply.

Pros

Overall working conditions are good. Pay and medical are great. They keep break room stocked with free beverages like soda and coffee. Also, have fresh fruit. You will learn a lot and be driven to enhance your professional skills.

Cons

Very quick to layoff and you never know it is coming. My job was based on contracts and it seemed that every year we got less and fewer contracts. I survived several but they eventually got to me. I hold no ill will towards Calix but they need to work better at getting new contacts and keeping them.
