      Still fun like a start-up, inclusive, and people-centric company

      Pros

      Very supportive management and team spirit. There are less silos, walls, and "not my problem" attitude than at other companies I have been at. Definite emphasis on things important in a startup like customer focus and "Getting Sh*t Done" and reducing unproductive meetings and paperwork. GSD is one of the company's core values. Customers love the product and you definitely see how your work makes people happy.

      Cons

      More stingy on cash as management is focused on improving EPS. Less raises, less swag, no 401k matching, etc. When Box was 100 people, buying everyone an iPad for Christmas and a black-tie party in San Francisco was possible. Now the emphasis is on hiring overseas as much as possible.

      Pros

      the pay is good starboard coming into the org is good. restructuring was needed. fancy head quarters building is nice box as a service is reliable

      Cons

      difficult to sell. Box is not a necessary service. onedrive and g-drive are good enough to get the job done. almost impossible for box to continue to compete. always hitting that headwind during a sales cycle. no 401k match at all health plan just got very bad since starboard came in stock is worthless management is just a bunch of inexperienced kids promoted from within. all the A players left

      Good work culture but industry headwinds

      Pros

      Open work culture. Good engineering team. Great food.

      Cons

      Not a stellar growth maybe due to the market in which the company operates. Lot of pressure to get things done (GSD) but poor organizational structure to accomplish it. Many old timers left creating a vacuum
