Business Outlook
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.
