Pros
Callidus is a fast paced company with an amazing culture and visionary leadership.
CallidusCloud employees work hard and play hard. This is a place where performance is key and your performance drives your compensation not your tenure - MVP can be anyone in the company and presidents club is not about sales only! Opportunities and room for growth and the company really does offer you the flexibility to pursue your interests.
One of the few places where i have not seen red tape and focus on getting things done. All employees are encouraged to follow their passion and changing groups or role is very easy and even encouraged. I have seen management work hard ensuring not only that we do not lose good talent by providing enough opportunities but also rewarding top performers.
Also, very considerate to work with employees individual circumstances. In my time here, i have seen HR going to extra length to try finding solution for an employee's personal situation.
The leadership team has been visionary to build portfolio of a suite of products which together, are one of a kind in the market, has is very focused on the company vision and have really delivered results.Cons
From my point of view, not any cons that i can think of. You are responsible for your own destiny here, there is help and guidance available, but you need to seek it.

"God awful management"
StarStarStarStarStarDoesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at CallidusCloud full-time (More than a year)
Pros
It could be great
Cons
The worst managers you can find anywhere. They have very little experience and often extremely arrogant and unpleasant to deal with. Being cursed at by certain senior VPs can be common place. Services is the worst place to be, you get no support, no praise, little bonuses and no stock.
Advice to Management
find new jobs. Unless there are changes this will sink

Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookDisapproves of CEOI worked at CallidusCloud full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Free soda, water, coffee, and some snacks
Monthly lunch, beer bash, and ice cream
Beautiful office space
Holiday parties at the officeCons
It's run like a 1990's software company. Very top heavy and hierarchical. There is no "partner" with your manager. People run around like chickens trying to kiss up to the CEO, while he talks about all the expensive cars he drives. It's not a casual, open dialogue type place with upper management, though they try to talk the game that it is.
As with any company, your experience is based on the group you work in, and I'm sure there are some great groups, and people to work with at CallidusCloud, but I also see a lot of weird groups. Just weird setups, weird and poor communication to team. Back stabbing, etc..
While there is a beer bash, most people grab their beer and go back to their desk to keep working (so again old school trying to be youthful)
While there are Christmas and Halloween events, same thing. Very few people attend, and those that do grab food and go back to their desk...
I just can't find a better word to describe it than weird.Advice to Management
Stop trying to be modern, and be modern. Stop the old school, "fear your boss" atmosphere.

Pros
Here at CallidusCloud, you have to be somewhat your own boss. Meaning, you are free and encouraged to participate and even lead in your area of expertise. With the companies growth it seems like the sky is the limit for opportunity, but you have to grab your opportunities and hang on. Over all, I have been so privileged to be a part of these amazing people that make up CallidusCloud. Up, Up and away to the top 5 Cloud Company arena.
Cons
I would like to see more actual PM organization used to bring various department and company initiatives together in a common effort. We could do even more than we are right now and more efficiently. More consistency in cross collaboration tools.
Advice to Management
Enforce teaming between departments with the VP/SVP leadership. Any barriers to team work and cross departmental collaborations should be quickly squashed.
