      Great place to work

      Inside sales representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Great culture, almost everyone is awesome to work with -The perks are top notch (unlimited PTO, free lunch, free snacks, good benefits etc) -Management team has superb vision -Company is doing well and in a great place to take the ECM market -Aaron is a truly incredible person that I believe will lead the company to great places -I have never felt the need to write a glassdoor review for any company I've worked for until I came to Box. It's that great.

      Cons

      -As Box grows it becomes harder for everyone to buy into the culture set by our CEO. Especially for hires that are older and from different backgrounds. I would caution candidates that aren't looking for a start-up culture even though Box is well beyond start-up stage. -Honestly not that many cons come to mind. Couldn't recommend it more.

      Austin Outbound Sales

      Outbound sales representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Your coworkers are a group of intelligent, caring individuals who truly value hard work and teamwork. Box is a good company that has potential to be great.

      Cons

      I say this from a place of pure bias, but the Austin sales team is in shambles. I cannot speak to the California teams, who seem to be doing well (either that or they're great fakers!). I came on thinking, "This is it, this is where I will kick off an incredible career in sales! I am going to kick butt and learn so much doing it."- FALSE. I 100% blame this on management. There was little to no training and the quota was completely ambiguous. Meanwhile, you're being told if you work hard there is endless room for growth in Austin and in your sales career at Box; this was also false. There is literally no where to go but out. As I said above, your coworkers are amazing people, Box really does know how to hire. They do not, however, know how to hire/promote good managers and that is why this team is failing. This may seem like the rantings of a disgruntled employee, but if you need further confirmation of Box Austin's failings, there are 6 others (out of 10) who quit the Austin sales team in the last 3 months.

      Thank you for your review. We definitely read these reviews and exit responses. I'm sorry we didn't get a chance to discuss and address this feedback while you were still at Box. We take this feedback very seriously. The OBR role is one of the toughest sales roles. You are on the front lines of our sales org and cold calling new companies. We know you don't want to do this role forever. We have started to expand our career path in Austin by promoting several reps into Channel Sales and expanding our AE presence in the office. I want to ensure my management team is doing everything to make the team successful. I've hosted meetings with all OBRs in the role 3+ months to gather feedback about the Austin office, management and the role. Since then we've standardized metrics, multi-office collaboration and implemented an outbound specific onboarding program.
