Pros

Great product to be selling, very much a startup feel, in a good way. Everyone is kind, hungry, and focused on success. The culture is not yet cut throat or leveraging fear to drive productivity. Rather the culture is one of ongoing success and very supportive.

Cons

No 401K matching (although they offer RSUs)

Pros

- Unlimited PTO, that's about it except you're so understaffed you can't use PTO more than 2-3 days at a time

Cons

- Expect startup-level intensity without the compensation, vision, or resourcing to match. - Teams are extremely lean, which creates constant pressure, oftentimes doing the roles of 2-3 jobs - Compensation tends to fall behind the market over time due to below-market pay and the lack of refreshers. - The culture has also shifted significantly under newer leadership. What once felt values-driven now feels heavily focused on short-term business outcomes, with a noticeable culture of blame when performance misses expectations. - Poor product leadership contributes to a reactive environment where priorities change often and pressure consistently rolls downhill onto frontline employees without support or alignment - Lots of long-time Boxers have left due to these shifts in the company over the past few years
