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.

Lots of Pros, but attrition is becoming a state of emergency

Pros

Great people on the whole- minimal ego, super smart, and friendly colleagues. Cool office and food. Genuinely great product. There's some amazing vision everywhere you look.

Cons

Attrition has become a very serious problem. Dozens leaving every month- particularly A players who are being recruited by other companies with much better salaries. The compensation issues are getting worse (paying employees in stock was extremely tone deaf), internal mobility policies block advancement more often than they support it, and most of the orgs have very limited IC advancement opportunities. Most of the people who leave aren't disgruntled... they're conflicted. They love Box, but the lack of advancement and the grossly below market salaries force them out. Then they poach their high performing friends.
