Pros

Box's company culture and top leadership is fantastic. They're very forward thinking and aren't afraid to take big bets. They're C-level leadership is fantastic and are humble, excited leaders. Individual contributors at the company are very hard working and fun people. Lots of work friendships!

Cons

VP and middle management has had some challenges. Many of these employees come from existing enterprise companies (generally legacy) and tend to have a "well at my last company we did it this way" mentality which is dangerous to growth. Box is doing it's best to mitigate this.

Pros

Box is, without a doubt, the future of enterprise content management. The energy of that reality is tangible in every employee on board. That should be enough to motivate and excite anyone who considers working there. Make no mistake, the large deals are well on their way and everyone in every industry will be on board.

Cons

It's no longer a startup, and the corporate culture reflects that. It's not a con so much as it's a new expectation for entering employees. Fully recognize that your feedback is simply not warranted until you've been at the company for at least 1 promotion. It hurts the ego, but that's just the new normal.
