Pros

Great People, Incredible culture of inclusion, sales leadership cares about more than numbers, incredible place for professional development and generally a wonderful team of people working together on every sale. You can tell that Box is driven by 7 core values that matter. They're more concerned with the day to day life of their employees than anywhere else I've worked. Wonderful place to be. Very grateful to work here with the current leadership and C-Suite.

Cons

Compensation OTEs are lower than other SaaS companies

Pros

I cannot share enough positive words about Box. I genuinely love my job, responsibilities, the team, compensation, benefits, culture and community at this company. We are provided all of the tools and resources we need to succeed. The team is highly skilled and experienced, and work gets done more quickly and efficiently than any other company I've worked at before. The culture fosters inclusivity, humility and drive. I work with some of the smartest people who genuinely want to be the best versions of themselves both at work and outside of work. I am inspired by fellow Boxers who do countless acts of good in their communities. Aaron Levie is an incredibly driven and visionary CEO. Things have been extremely busy this month and last with the COVID-19 pandemic, and Aaron was already ahead of the curve on building a strategy for our company before the pandemic fully took off in the U.S. I was inspired to see the way he mobilized over 2,000 people to come together and support each other, our customers and our communities. Box has a great mindset pertaining to remote work as well. I live in Colorado and they were willing to be flexible with a fully remote position for me, which I appreciate every day. The team has adapted to the new fully remote life better than I could've ever thought possible. When I am at HQ, I am blown away by the amenities, food and events. Box offers unlimited PTO and I never feel strange about using it. Box really values mental health of employees and encourages employees to take time off with friends and family, or just R&R when needed. Again, I really cannot speak highly enough about this company.

Cons

Sometimes the amount of work travel can be draining for my role, which only happens during busy seasons (like events).

Pros

Box has a great culture. They hire friendly people and actively work to create a welcoming and open environment.

Cons

Frequent technical struggles hinder development. Productivity tools can be unreliable. Layers of bureaucracy have built up over time which slow down work without making processes safer.
