Incredible place to work

Pros

I've been at Box for 5 years, and it's by far the best company culture I've been a part of. Our values truly drive the way we do business, and the company cares about their employees. The team has been innovating on the product roadmap like crazy and we're a company at the forefront of powering people to WFH through the pandemic.

Cons

No company is perfect and Box has seen its normal share of ups and downs through the years. What's important is how we fail fast and continue to foster our culture through growth.

Pros

I enjoyed working with Box a lot, nice teamwork and collaboration environment. Great WLB!

Cons

Stock performance was not that desirable which could hurt team morale. Top-down decision making was not the best way to trigger creation.

Pros

-Extremely supportive culture (PTO and work-life balance are encouraged; there is a lot of transparency) -Opportunity for internal mobility -The talent & belonging team work hard to establish a sense of community (and Boxers are typically pretty friendly and open) -Great benefits/perks (Commuter, behavioral health/wellness, parental support, just to name a few) -Free lunch, snacks in the office

Cons

-No 401k match -No office gym (but this was only a loss for me because my last company had one; Box compensates with a monthly fitness stipend)
