Pros

I have worked in more than 6 companies and Box is the best place to work for mainly for it's culture and people you work with. Since the company size is not that big , you get a lot of visibility on the work you do. It's far easy here to initiate ,test and productionalize any of your valuable ideas. FREE FOOD !!! and Lot of other Benefits. Box as a company is the leader in the market in CCM area and expected to grow more without a question. The whole company is data driven ! BEST CEO EVER !

Cons

If you are working on Data side,Infrastructure is OK but not the Best, still to improve on that.

Pros

-Great culture, almost everyone is awesome to work with -The perks are top notch (unlimited PTO, free lunch, free snacks, good benefits etc) -Management team has superb vision -Company is doing well and in a great place to take the ECM market -Aaron is a truly incredible person that I believe will lead the company to great places -I have never felt the need to write a glassdoor review for any company I've worked for until I came to Box. It's that great.

Cons

-As Box grows it becomes harder for everyone to buy into the culture set by our CEO. Especially for hires that are older and from different backgrounds. I would caution candidates that aren't looking for a start-up culture even though Box is well beyond start-up stage. -Honestly not that many cons come to mind. Couldn't recommend it more.
