Pros

When I joined Calix a few years ago, I was looking for six attributes in a company: 1) Technology Investment/Leadership, 2) Strategic Thought Leadership, 3) Strong Management, 4) Market Leadership, 5) Strong Financials and 6) Company size and my ability to make a difference. Calix had and continues to grow stronger in all these areas!

Cons

Not really negatives, but the fast-paced environment and overly communicative approach tends to make my head implode some days :-).

Pros

Decent salary. You'll also quickly gain valuable experience in how not to operate on your next job: a lesson that will serve you well in future roles.

Cons

Old-fashioned work culture where you're expected to execute without question. Excessive overtime work, release cycles are chaotic, and there's little appetite for improving systems or sustainability, it's all about following orders rather than thinking critically.
