Working in HR @ Box

Pros

I work with people that are very intelligent. Each person is great at contributing ideas in a collaborative environment. Box is a flat organization with no real hierarchy/politics. This is truly refreshing and helps the lines of communication to be more open than I have experienced at other companies. Coming to work is fun too, because I am constantly learning and increasing my skill set. I am encouraged to think outside of my comfort zone on a regular basis and enjoy the challenge. I have never been micro managed and feel I have a great Manager. I am also told when I am doing a great job, which I did not get at my last job really. Box has given me the environment to thrive and be more successful than with any other company I have worked for. I also feel there is opportunity to grow my career and even transition into other departments and learn a whole new skill set. I have seen this happen for many people at Box.

Cons

People must have a four year degree to work at Box. I do not believe that should be a requirement. I think people with the right experience should be considered for various roles regardless of if they have a four year degree from an accredited college.

Pros

Great culture, competitive pay, fast paced environment with solid leadership that is open to listening to employees to improve work experience. Everyone from CEO on down are willing to get involved in your deals to ensure you're successful. Truly a great place to work.

Cons

We are still growing at a rapid pace which brings its own set of challenges but compared to working at a large company, this is a far better experience. Some of the promotion paths are strict-- meaning reps need to be promoted to specific roles first before moving on to the next even when they are more qualified than outside candidates for open position.
