Pros

The people here are hands down the best I’ve ever come across in my years working in tech. They hire the brightest and most innovative from many of the large tech companies who have loads of experience. The office space in RWC is also the nicest space I’ve ever seen across all of big tech (compared to Google, Amazon, SFDC, etc). Fully stocked cafeteria for meals and the best snacks anywhere. Exec staff is also very approachable and will actually remember you and thank you when you work on a project together. Amazing experience from the top down.

Cons

The biggest gripe I have (and why I don’t give 5 stars) is the annual performance review process. It is mandatory and it takes HOURS away from actual work you could be doing for the company. You have to review yourself in full detail and also get several peers to review you, which takes so much time away from the larger company goals. If the required performance review could be shortened/eliminated I would give 5 stars. Also if OKRs could be reduced to once per year vs every quarter, it would also improve the overall workforce efficiency.

Pros

There are many opportunities for growth and development - exposure to different parts of the business and opportunity to make an impact. Box has a very collaborative culture. There is a huge sense of community and belonging on the team and company wide (ie Employee Resource Communities).

Cons

Compensation and raises can be more competitive.
