Ciena is a great place to work, explore and make connections and overall grow in the IT industry. For the past year or so I've been part of Ciena, the best part I've felt is that its a company a person can settle and give years especially later in their career. The culture is very employee centric and there are many verticals to work and contribute. They are very flexible wit the timings and the managers and colleagues are very supportive. I am working as a remote employee and their remote program is one of the very best in the industry. Also there is very less micro-management in the company which is refreshing as people contribute and work on their hours they are comfortable with.

... ideas and work on them. Also motivates employees to focus on career and growth. The company has tried to be more transparent in terms of compensation in the last year and immense support to the employees during pandemic through different allowances. The company also provides a wellbeing allowance to motivate employees to focus on their health first. And the Gurgaon employees can avail a free day care in high quality preschools like Klay fully sponsored by Ciena which is one of the most lucrative perks.
