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

Calix has an excellent company culture where employees genuinely support one another. The collaboration across departments is one of its biggest strengths, making it easy to work together toward common goals. The company also offers a great work-life balance and promotes a flexible, respectful work environment that allows employees to be productive while maintaining their personal lives.

Cons

Compensation could be more competitive, especially for non-Sales roles, as responsibilities grow. Advancement opportunities can also be limited for certain departments, making it challenging for employees looking for long-term career progression within the company.
