Pros

Workplace definitely cares about its employees, low levels of office politics, delicious free food. Work is challenging in a good way, but not overwhelming or stressful.

Cons

Engineering department can have disorganized leadership and cross-team collaboration can be hampered by poor communication. Product strategy emphasizes new features over having a good experience using existing features. User experience using Box has a lot of gaps.

Pros

Competitive compensation and decent earning potential depending on segment. Opportunity to manage complex deal cycles. Broad product suite allows for cross-sell and solution-based selling. Active founder-led company

Poor management quality and leadership decisions can impact morale. Culture can feel less dull and lack energy especially compared to faster-growing tech companies. Selling the product can feel little exciting. Internal processes and decision-making can feel bureaucratic.
