Citrix Systems Employee Reviews for Web Developer

"People are nice. Almost too nice. A good place to hang out and chill."

What do you like about working at Citrix Systems?

"Everybody is generally approachable. There is very little ego among management. For a tech company, people are totally r-e-l-a-x-e-d. Compared to a start-up, everybody seems slightly stoned."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"If you are a developer: make sure you your manager understands the technology they are managing. Be wary of a manager with a recent MBA who has never touched a lick of real tech trench."

What don't you like about working at Citrix Systems?

"Management discipline is non-existent--no deadlines, no accountability, no project methodology. The place is a ticking time bomb, because virtually none of its products are defensible in-and-of themselves. Product quality and customer retention suffers in this environment."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Be more dynamic. Set goals. Stand up and lead. Curb the politics and the deflection and the protective den-mother a bit. Or your people go soft and wander aimlessly."

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