Anyone willing to share their experience going from MS to Citrix? Any surprises?
What makes you move from Microsoft to citrix?
Im looking for a better team , still in IT. I'm not based in Redmond or Bay area. Considering Citrix among others, thus the question....
Do they match ms compensation?
I'm on final I interviews now. So that will definitely be a determining factor. I was wondering if anyone had experience, not only with compensation but culture, etc...
I have been working since the beginning of my career. I love the culture here. :)
What's your yoe and what position are you targeting?
Applied for Sr Mgr role. Recruiter wants to put me in a loop for a Director role as well.
How is career growth? Office politics? Promotions timing?
Career growth is decent. Office politics is a lot. Promotion timing at your level would be atleast 4-5 years.
Thanks for your replies! Any idea on salary ranges for Sr Managers in a Sale org? Director salary range? I'm now at 140k base plus RSU + bonus, etc...comparable? Do you know if they typically offer sign on bonuses?
Depends on your role and location. Citrix only adjust compensation for a few regions. You should get a higher base but not so good benefits. I went the other way Citrix to MS. Culture at Citrix is depressing.
What is so depressing about its culture? Were you on the sales side?
Isnt Citrix dying?
