Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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.

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.
