      Excellent culture, good comp and nice people

      Pros

      The best place I worked so far. Fast growing, full of passion, and you can learn tons from here. The entire atmosphere are awesome, people around are energetic, colleague are smart, funny and very nice! Everyone are easy to communication and ask for help. Compensation is great, close to IPO, I believe if you work hard you can get what you pay for.

      Cons

      Don't find really one so far, office feel a little crowd now, need move to a spacious place. Codebase is a little mess, have some tech debate need solve.

      Too heavy at the top, unhealthy ratio of VP/SVP to employee

      Pros

      Fun environment, fast-growing space, potential to disrupt a large market and therefore, potential large business opportunity. Solid board of advisors. If you live in the area or nearby, it is great. For folks in SF or SJ, commute might not be great.

      Cons

      Box wants to be another Salesforce.com. It has a very expensive and not too-scalable direct sales model, which sooner or later will weigh them down as a public company.They have hired an unusually large number of VP and above-level individuals, which is also expensive. Too many VP-cooks in the kitchen and politicking slowing down decision-making. Some old-timers (in alliances, sales, product and engineering) stay there because of personal ties, despite their performance and/or behavior being dismal. Some really good folks resigned or were given no other choice but to leave. There have been under the table layoffs and plenty of turnover. Young founders. Diverging views between CEO and COO.
