Pluspunten

Talented pool of engineers, although their lives are ruined by awful managers.

Minpunten

Managenemt, including the senior folk are toying with engineers that work for them. With lay-offs happening since November 2017 we have seen the worst decisions being made especially in the Prof Svcs department, when it comes to whom to fire and whom to keep. Absolutely Ridiculuous!! Don't the upper management see that one of them is only protecting his (weak) friends while letting go talented engineers? Insane!! Calix used to be much better than this.

Pluspunten

Calix offers a highly collaborative, customer‑first environment where strong cross‑functional partnerships are genuinely valued. The culture encourages ownership, accountability, and proactive problem‑solving, especially when supporting high‑impact customers and complex initiatives. Leadership is accessible and supportive, and there’s a real emphasis on continuous improvement, process refinement, and professional growth. If you enjoy meaningful work, transparency, and being trusted to make decisions that positively impact both customers and the business, Calix is a great place to build and grow your career.

Minpunten

As with many fast‑growing, customer‑focused organizations, the pace at Calix can be demanding, particularly during peak periods or when managing complex, cross‑functional initiatives. Processes and tools are continuously evolving, which can occasionally create ambiguity and require adaptability. Aligning across multiple teams and priorities sometimes takes persistence, and success often depends on being proactive, detail‑oriented, and comfortable navigating change. That said, these challenges tend to come with opportunities for visibility, impact, and growth.
