Box Employee Reviews about "401k match"

Pros

First of all, I LOVE Box. This company is truly one-of-a-kind and such an amazing company to work for. The people who work here are so incredibly smart and caring that sometimes it's difficult to picture working anywhere else that has the same kind of kindness that Boxers have. Benefits are really great (except 401ks, no matching) and the parental leave is great too.

Cons

While I really love this company, I think they take one of their values "Assume good intent" almost to an extreme. There's almost no accountability at Box which is extremely discouraging for hard workers. When sales people aren't hitting their numbers for well over a year, it's time to cut your losses and fire them. At Box, getting fired is almost unheard of and if you do get fired, then you REALLY messed up. While I wouldn't want to work for a cutthroat environment, I think there's a balance that Box needs to find if it wants to continue promoting hard work and cut some of the fat in the company that bogs us down. Box also needs to do 401k matching and make their salaries more competitive if they want to hold onto their talent. Culture is great but it doesn't pay the bills.

Pros

Nothing to hide here, what you see is what you get. From the interview process through my first month, one thing remains true, people genuinely love working at Box. Even from a remote environment, I have been welcome with open arms and have felt a true sense of team and community. I am one month in and very excited about my future at Box.

Cons

No 401k match which I did have at my other company BUT the other amazing benefits outweigh this con.

Pros

- Work culture is amazing - Encouraging environment to continue learning - People are nice, helpful, and supportive

Cons

Only con is they don't have 401k matching

Pros

Compensation, Employee Stock Purchase Program, Free lunch & snacks, Culture, Management, Ability for promotions & lateral movements, Good Insurance offerings

Cons

There aren't many cons that I can think of beyond no 401K matching. As is true with practically any sales job, your ability to earn high commission is indicative of your patch.

Pros

- Great Company Culture - Good product - Unlimited PTO

Cons

- Not 401K Matching - Difficult to get promoted

Pros

-Aaron cares deeply about the company, our future trajectory, and every single individual here. -Great flexibility with working hours -- especially during COVID-19 pandemic. -Culture-forward company. Friday Lunches, Community Corner events, ERC's & interests groups. I feel like I'm part of a family when I come to work each day.

Cons

-No 401K match -Compensation and job leveling

Pros

Great culture. The company genuinely cares about you as a person and provides opportunities to learn and grow your career.

Cons

no 401k match, high turn over

Pros

-Supportive managers who care about you as humans (especially during COVID) -Culture is strong/positive

Cons

-No 401k match -Pay is not as competitive as other companies (management for whatever reason does not want to acknowledge as an issue)

Pros

Culture Forward Flexible Schedule Constant career growth High Impact Projects/Work

Cons

No 401k match Compensation needs to match company values

Pros

Heavily career-focused. They really want to see you grow and improve. People encourage each other to spread their wings. Very judgement-free.

Cons

No 401k match and no signs of one coming ever. Lots of turnover which causes unrest/confusion and is not handled well by management. Many employers are complainers and want more - but I think they're doing a great job.
