Pros

The product works as advertised. Free food. Free t-shirts. Good employee stock purchase plan. Great HQ facility to take clients.

Cons

For new employees, managers are pushed to hire from a list of “elite” colleges. The CEO didn’t graduate from college. Is this not a double standard? The best candidate for the job is not always hired. Diversity is pushed beyond belief and then used in marketing, both internally and externally. Box is not a company where the majority of employees stay and have a true career. No true leadership in sales. Backstabbing is encouraged and tolerated.

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.
