it is a fare package

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 3 days ago

I am concerned that we appear to be less of a sales centric company with the focus is too much on MBO's and less on upside potential.

I'm not unhappy or undervalued, I just think the benefits "could" be better. They are good, pay is good, but I would be lying if I didn't think they could be better. Better better never best is our internal company motto.

Larger increases in base and more bonuses.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 5 days ago

I feel undervalued when my compensation does not fully reflect my contributions, impact, and market standards; a more competitive and performance-aligned package would help address that.

My coworkers could improve on communication, alignment, and responsiveness, and we could work better together by setting clearer expectations, sharing updates more proactively, and collaborating more openly.

Review from HR Dept · Posted 5 days ago

I think communication, my coworkers are great people but sometimes they are not good communicators. I can also always improve my own communication.

Review from Marketing Dept

they need to understand the company work culture, how to reach to people , communicate with each other

Review from Engineering Dept

Most mid to senior management at Calix are Mavericks or Venturers, indifferent to structure, details, or processes. Direct reports must quickly execute their leaders' spontaneous ideas. The organization lacks skills in analysis, problem-solving, data-driven decision-making, and clear communication.

Communication. Overall, the message not always travel all the way. Sometimes directions are very unclear and confusing.

Calix culture of "better better never best" reminds us that there is always opportunity to get better. And every individual is given the latitude and whatever resources needed to do their job well.

1. Meaningful efforts from leadership to understand challenges or gather time-to-time feedback. 2. Very less/minimal promotions in India team, employees do not get opportunity for growth. Focus on growth opportunities for existing employees - promotions, internal mobility, career progression.
