CIENA CORPORATION Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

I feel like the office is my therapy and alcohol is my cure

Equality of gender, race, position, locality and diverse culture

Review from IT Dept

People help each other. Truly a collaborative environment.

Open and candid communication about any and every topic affecting product and people development.

A sense of belonging to something greater than me.

Review from Sales Dept

It's all about the people. Our CEO and Leadership Team believes that when you get the "people thing" right, everything else will follow. This leads to a group of happy employees who do the best they can that ultimately leads to the company's successes.

Ciena walks the talk when they say people come first. Anything you can read outside about the culture is true when you come in.

Transparent...open door policy. Collaborative .

Review from Sales Dept

Review from IT Dept
