Pros

Stimulating. They'll use you to your full potential. Nice, friendly and understanding managers. Competitive pay. Internal learning and training platform with courses specific to Ciena product to help you get started. Even though it's hard to get started, your whole team will support you and your manager will slowly ramp up your work as you get better. Ciena really values its employees, because they are really hard to replace. Ciena has a really complex product that requires a lot of inside knowledge. It's hard for them to find new employees, so they give good opportunities for employees to move to different teams and products so they don't lose them.

Cons

Mandatory DEI training. Really steep learning curve of knowledge specific to Ciena. You'll learn a lot of things that won't be of any help at any of your future jobs outside of Ciena.
