Pros
What attracted me to Calix was the opportunity to have an impact and drive change. Thus far, I've felt empowered to bring forth new ideas and contribute and that's been inspiring. I feel supported in attending relevant conferences and in getting the resources I need to do my work well. I particularly appreciate that Calix supports Remote Workers. Much of the company is dispersed, yet everything falls into place. It's nice to see that kind of trust from an employer. Work-life balance has been quite reasonable and time-off has never been an issue.
Cons
Since much of the company is dispersed, it's hard to cultivate a true sense of community. I feel in-tune to the team I work with regularly, but don't feel connected beyond that. However, I get that that's the trade-off when working remotely. Beyond that, my only gripe is that there are no healthy snacks.
