Pros

- Strong product with real enterprise value - Smart, supportive coworkers across teams - Good place to build customer-facing and cross-functional experience - Exposure to meaningful technical and commercial work

Cons

- Career growth can depend heavily on team and leadership, with internal visibility and alignment playing a big role - Strong performance does not always translate into timely promotion or compensation progression - Because Box competes in a category often viewed as commoditized, deals can be harder to win without strong technical selling - Overall employee experience can vary a lot by org

Pros

Benefits except 401k lack of matching and pay is on par with market

Cons

No raises, no promotions unless you are in office, sales drives everything and all other departments are treated like less than equal "assistants" at best. "We all are sales" is the motto but they do not compensate the other teams for selling but holds them accountable for missing metrics.

Pros

Box has an incredibly talented and collaborative engineering team. The work is challenging and meaningful, with real impact on enterprise customers. Management is supportive, transparent, and genuinely invested in employee growth. The compensation and benefits are competitive, and there is a strong emphasis on work-life balance. The culture of innovation keeps the work exciting and rewarding every day.

Cons

Occasionally the pace of change can feel fast, but the strong team support and clear communication from leadership make it easy to adapt and stay aligned.
