Pros
Box’s response to the pandemic has highlighted why I love working here: Box holds inspiring values as its north star, and it really lives those values. I love being part of a company that cares so deeply about its mission and wants to delight customers by making their lives and businesses easier. The work I do feels meaningful and interesting, and I routinely collaborate with brilliant and fun co-workers. I love that the company as a whole has an inclusive, kind, agile, and fun culture. Senior leadership exhibits kindness, creativity, drive, humility, caring, and support of others, and that culture trickles down throughout the organization. Our CEO (a company co-founder) in particular is different breed of executive: a visionary who is humble, tenacious, charismatic, funny, and deeply caring. I feel very lucky to be at Box!
Cons
Individuals managers vary widely, so different Boxers can have very different experiences. There has also been some turnover, and even though many fabulous, long-time Boxers remain, it’s always sad saying good-bye to beloved Box alumni.
