      Awesome company to work for

      Pros

      Fast moving and innovative with lots to do. Great perks with the usual free lunch, snacks and shuttle. Rapid expansion leaves plenty of room to grow your career.

      Cons

      Sometimes the pace is a little too fast combined with short term thinking. There is a big clash between the pure startup mentality people and corporate people that are being brought in which can be unproductive. While moving 'fast' decision making can be rather slow as you need way too many people in on the decision.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working for a company that has leadership that is as passionate about the company as they are about the employees and product is very refreshing. Lots of added perks to the job such as, great offices, ergonomic desks, great snacks, free lunch and on-going training in different areas of your expertise, etc.

      Cons

      The challenges of a growing company are not for everyone, things change quickly and it requires you to adjust and adapt on a dime.

      All that glitters is not gold

      Director of strategic marketing
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good product. Company addressing a large market opportunity. Potentially, a future platform play. Some good folks working there too (platform, recruiting, customer success). Fun, youngish, sometimes borderline silly culture.

      Cons

      Getting very fat at the top. The company has too many VP's and above, enjoying rich compensation, which weighs down on the P&L. Sales, Biz Dev, Marketing,..you name it. Levie is too inexperienced and all over the map. Levin delegates down and manages up. Others have been there too long (grandfathered in despite their incompetency) or simply are playing politics as the company grows. None of the senior exec staff took responsibility for mistakes in timing and content on the S-1, rather focus on firing under the table and trimming, which is not a good sign long-term. Many customers state that they are now using Box just as cloud storage, which is a commodity. The company may see churn increase.
