Great solution with a viable place in the market

Minpunten

- EMEA senior sales management have very little sales experience - Management don't take any responsibility for failings, to quick to blame people on the ground - Evident divide between sales teams and other departments (Marketing, CS, Legal) - Customers are no longer the priority as the egos of EMEA leadership's have taken over - Very poor office culture in EMEA HQ

Thank you for the feedback. We've been transitioning our EMEA organisation over recent quarters, this is to better align our teams with the opportunity in front of us. We recognize that change is not easy and not for everyone. However, as a result we have seen significant revenue improvements in FY20 vs FY19 and continue to see our business grow. If you have any further feedback, you can always reach out to our EMEA People team who are available to speak confidentially regarding organisational engagement.

Pluspunten

Working at Box offers a strong mix of career growth, meaningful impact, and modern tech exposure—you get to sell and support a platform that’s actually solving real-world problems across government, enterprise, and regulated industries, not just pushing software for the sake of it. The company’s focus on AI-powered content management, security, and workflow automation keeps you close to where the market is heading, which builds highly transferable skills. At the same time, the culture tends to emphasize collaboration, autonomy, and ownership, giving you room to develop your own strategies (like your targeted campaigns and use-case-driven outreach) while still having the backing of a well-established platform with strong product-market fit.

Minpunten

Working at Box isn’t without its challenges—one of the biggest is that the product can be harder to differentiate at a surface level, especially against tools like Microsoft (SharePoint/OneDrive) or Dropbox, which means you have to work much harder in sales to educate prospects on deeper workflow and security value. Sales cycles can be long and complex, requiring patience and persistence with multiple stakeholders. Internally, like many growing tech companies, priorities and messaging can shift as new products (AI, Extract, etc.) roll out, which can create some ambiguity. And because Box is a platform play, success often depends on how well customers adopt and expand usage, so deals don’t always feel “done” at close—you’re thinking long-term from day one.
