We are Citrix

Citrix is harnessing the power of intentional inclusion through authentic connections and empowered people-centered strategies and technology.

Our diverse workforce spans multiple generations, speaks more than 35 languages, and lives and operates in more than 40 countries.

Over the past year, we focused on enhancing our Diversity and Inclusion program and tailoring it to Citrix: our people, our values and our culture. We have worked hand-in-hand with our employees to create a program that shows our commitment to making Citrix a stand-out environment.

Compensation and benefits

Citrix meets the needs of our diverse and global workforce by providing fair and competitive benefits. We believe it’s important to be consistent in how employees are rewarded. We have differences in our programs to meet competitive needs and comply with local customs and laws, and provide offerings that reflect local market practices.

Accountability in action

In 2021, our leadership expanded our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging to align with the same intensity as other business initiatives. We've expanded our emphasis on equity as a key driver of our DEIB vision and mission, which is centered on the employee. We've created a framework for leaders and our Employee Resource Groups to define goals, and we've strengthened our data capabilities to support how we hold our leaders accountable in order to shape a more inclusive Citrix.

I AM Citrix Journey

In 2021, we began a new learning experience designed to strengthen our culture, grow skills, and to enhance diversity in employee interactions. The I AM Citrix Journey is an ongoing experience of microlearning, practice, and connection that provides long-term skill-based reflection and direct interaction with fellow employees. Each Citrite learns how to bring their most authentic self to work, bridge differences with coworkers, and be an active part of our vision to further foster a culture of inclusion and belonging.

Enhancing awareness and learning

Our DEIB team host two signature awareness events throughout the year.

Launched in 2019, Daring Dialogues tackles tough cultural issues and gives our employees a voice in doing so. Past topics include: systemic racism, privilege, racism and the law, mental health, disability, and faith in the workplace.

Our DiversiTEA (Increasing Diversity and Inclusion Through Education and Awareness) is a learning series launched in 2022 that focuses on increasing awareness of complex topics through education and skill development. The focus is on presentation of material and post-event actions for Citrites. Topics include: equal pay education, autism in the workplace, and microaggressions.

How are we doing?

We believe trust begins with transparency. Citrix has been focused on sharing more of our diversity metrics and progress. We’ve expanded our external reporting to cover the overall employee population, people managers, and leadership levels. We now also share more detail for underrepresented minorities in the United States, particularly those that are in the U.S. census.

Citrix has recently increased the number of female executives by growing the diversity of our external networks and conducting targeted outreach for key positions—but we realize there is still work to be done. Moving forward, we’re focused on expanding our presence at diversity recruiting events, embedding bias mitigation tools into our hiring process, and working more closely with our diversity and inclusion partners to increase outreach.
