Working at Citrix Systems in Santa Barbara, CA: 6 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Santa Barbara, CA Area

"It's a wonderful work place, you get to work with a bunch of talented people and excellent prospect for growth."

"Expertcity is a company that was acquired by Citrix which is headquartered in Florida. Expertcity was a good place to work. However, soon after the acquisition, there was a division in the QA dept, and later a coup, which resulted in a QA Manager who few trusted. As Citrix Online has continued to grow, the work environment has become increasingly political in nature. Also, since the coup, many Americans have been replaced by Indians recruited from USC. This is no longer a good place."

"I have worked for Citrix for almost 5 years and really enjoy the work and my co-workers. Citrix is a great place to work and I have no complaints about the environment, management, or any aspect of my job. I live 86 miles from the office and due to major construction that is not scheduled for completion for another 2 years, My daily commute is approaching 2 hours each way and while I can work from home I prefer working with closely the development team."

"I worked at Citrix SaaS Division getting steadily good annual reviews and a promotion. But then the axe hit on March 7, 2014. 65 workers were laid off. Those with the best performance, greatest seniority and highest positions were terminated, while new junior workers were kept. This was a cut with no heart and no subtlety. At Citrix, no matter what your performance or commitment to the company, your job is not secure. Layoffs also occured in 2009 followed soon by the new work centers in India."

"The management team is not completely doing the very best. The company is rather new and therefore some management practices like I have seen at bigger fortune 100 companies are missing."

"Citrix WebDev position, good for where I was."
