Box reviews

Unrealistic Quotas: Only a small number of SMB reps hit annual quota last year. Expectations continue to rise without proper territory support or resources. Large deals come mostly from inbound, so success heavily depends on territory assignment. Commission Plans Getting Worse: Comp plans continue to change in ways that hurt earning potential. Feedback is given repeatedly but rarely acted upon. No adjustment for inflation or cost of living. Political Promotions & High Attrition: Advancement is slow and political. Many reps leave soon after joining SMB because culture, pay, pressure, and leadership support aren't strong enough to keep them. Stressful Top-Down Culture: Leadership pushes high pressure without providing proper enablement or support. Employees are often spoken to like children instead of trusted adults. Communication often feels condescending rather than collaborative. Feedback Goes Nowhere: Reps consistently raise the same issues, yet leadership continues on the same path with the same excuses. Forced RTO: RTO is still being pushed despite employee pushback, negative employee reactions, and a lack of clear business case, or metrics to support the decision. Uncompetitive Benefits: Still no 401(k) match despite years of requests. Benefits lag behind similar tech companies.

- Company Values are just on the paper and Make Your Mom Proud means nothing, because there is no human decency and morality among Leadership (for example: offering candidates way below the internally approved salary ranges just because the candidates had lower salary expectations) - Leadership / Directors are always right, they are not open to hear feedback or improve anything, they just wanna hear praises and nice things - there's back stabbing and gossips everywhere so better watch yourself - removing uncomfortable people is a norm, especially when they could get in the way of a Manager being promoted or they would reveal his incompetence - Managers care more about their promotion than promoting their direct reports - there are managers with no people management skills whatsoever, micromanagers encouraging people to work from their vacation and sick leaves, not supporting taking more than a week of PTO, during 1:1's talking more about their travels, plans or loans in francs than about your work and how to unblock you, thriving a culture of blame, fear, silence, obedience and working over hours; gossiping and complaining about other people and other direct reports with you during your 1:1's, if they got a negative feedback in the employee surveys they were provoking weird conversations and sharing guesses who was the author the negativre feedback, not interested in any feedback or improvement because they considered a direct report can't give them feedback; led several direct reports to burnout, ending in a hospital or having a severe breakdown, masters of gaslighting - the most toxic work culture I ever experienced with corporate politics and playing games - no work life balance if you work from Europe - I've seen people who were fired unfairly just because their Managers didn't like them and wanted to get rid of them
