Pros

-As one of the more tenured employees, I've seen Box grow and change over the years, but the company has never taken their eyes off the mission. -Incredible people. Even on the worst days, my teammates are the ones I laugh with at the end. -Valued for my whole self. When I needed to make adjustments to my workload and schedule for some life changes, I felt fully supported by my manager and Box as a whole. -Leadership that isn't shy to state where they stand on social issues, and also accept where they need to do better. In today's climate, we want to know that our leaders believe in belonging and acceptance, equality and justice. I've been immensely proud to know that our leadership is vocal about the issues that impact their employees.

Cons

-This has recently gotten better, but for most of my time at Box there was never a clear career path for my org. It was difficult to determine my standing, which made promotion conversations and cross-org-career changes hard to navigate. However, recently more structure/mapping has been put in place to make this conversation easier. -My org/teammates have been consistently underpaid/undervalued compared to the market - As with any tech company, sometimes coworkers can lose sight of what matters and behave a bit spoiled over things that they should be grateful for. They can also sometimes be disrespectful of shared spaces/office environments.

Pros

Competitive compensation and decent earning potential depending on segment. Opportunity to manage complex deal cycles. Broad product suite allows for cross-sell and solution-based selling. Active founder-led company

Cons

Poor management quality and leadership decisions can impact morale. Culture can feel less dull and lack energy especially compared to faster-growing tech companies. Selling the product can feel little exciting. Internal processes and decision-making can feel bureaucratic.
