Pros
Box is a company you will be proud to work for, period. The culture at Box is the best out there - full of GOOD people who are enthusiastic about Box, passionate about life, and bring their authentic selves to work every day. Executive leadership has no ego and the CEO is one-of-a-kind, intelligent, genuine, and incredibly passionate. Incredible level of transparency is shared with the entire company on deals, products and business strategy. You feel like you’re really part of something & have the opportunity to make a real impact no matter what your role is! Lots of opportunity to move into new roles too. The product itself is such a game changer for remote work and companies wanting to thrive in the digital age. Flexible vacation policy, 5 months maternity leave, WFH stipend during COVID-19. Everyone has been especially supportive of each other during COVID-19 - giving employees additional paid days off, mental health resources and a flexible work from anywhere policy. If you’re lucky enough to get hired at Box, you will feel like you’re part of a family. After 2+ years I’ve not once dreaded going into work, in fact I look forward to it! Box is still building it’s place in the market, which makes it exciting times at the company and gives you lots to look forward to.
Cons
- The stock price is nothing to write home about.
- No 401k match (which has been a pain point for many years, and leadership continues to glaze over this despite massive demand from employees)
- Box is not a top payer in the industry
- Does not pay for cell phone or gym, but does supply a small monthly stipend for both.
