      1. Collaeguers are very friendly and cooperetive （except for some managemer）. 2. The compnay provides excellent benefit, a typical MNC. 3. As a tech company without 996.

      Cons

      1. Corruption exists within the management team, and decision-making lacks transparency. 2. Leadership enforces mandetory overtime but prohibits employees from filing overtime claims. 3. Poorly planned layoff that leads to career disruptions and termination for employees, it is career killer.

      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.
