Pros

There has not been a single day where I have second guessed my decision to stay at the company for as long as I have. People are a company's most important asset and I can't feel any luckier to work with such talented, driven, and motivated people who have your best interest. While the nature of sales is competitive, Box does a fantastic job of keeping hiring standards high and ensuring that culture continues to be the most important aspect of bringing people on-board. Secondly, having a leader like Aaron Levie is unheard of. I have so much respect for him and the passion and commitment that he has for the success and mission of the business carries over in everything we do and is incredible to be a part of. Its a hunter mentality that values and rewards hard work, the grind, and good people. There is also always opportunity to grow into other areas of the business if of interest.

Cons

tough to plan for relocation due to constant changes in headcount

Pros

Box was my second place of employment out of college and I've been here almost 4 years now. The culture is really phenomenal especially on the sales side of the house. There is a strong sense of community among coworkers and people really do want to see you succeed vs. hyper-competitive sales cultures. Additionally there are tons of resources around ERGS and room to grow with your career with upward mobility. The management in particular has really show their true colors during Covid-19. Aaron's leadership and generosity through out this pandemic has made me feel 100% secure in my job. Which in turn has allowed me to focus on what is really important and that is my customers and doing my job well. Management has also been extremely transparent and hosting weekly 1:1 fireside chats with various executives and the sales team members to share their own experiences in their roles and how we can translate that to benefit our customers. I also would say after a number of years our product offering is finally rounding out its suite offering to better compete with the larger traditional ECM players and better differentiate ourselves from basic files sharing.

Cons

No 401K Matching, Stock performance mediocre over the years, competitive market

Pros

The culture is incredible here! I have smart, driven, supportive colleagues and managers that have pushed me out of my comfort zone and as a result, accelerated my career. I've been able to go beyond my immediate responsibilities and build on other skill sets that helped make me a more well rounded professional. During my time at Box, leadership up to the exec level has been transparent and shown that they truly care about their employees. There are a ton of perks & benefits including free lunches, Caltrain passes, unlimited PTO and great healthcare options.

Cons

There is no 401k match.
