Pros
- Kind people. - Supportive working environment. - Competitive compensation. - Great perks. - One of the few remaining tech companies truly focused on employee wellbeing. - No layoffs despite challenging internal and external headwinds. Sacrifices have been made by leadership teams to ensure this. - No one can hide, everyone is expected to deliver at a high standard.
Cons
- Work-life balance. - Often confusing and constantly changing strategy in EMEA. - Sales is desperate for pipeline and this pressure is pushed onto functions which should be focused on longer-term initiatives/projects as well as customer success. - Box is an amazing product which sits in a crowded software category that is seldom seen as a priority for IT leaders. It is difficult to see how Box (for which you pay a high premium) will continue competing against Microsoft, Google and what they call ‘legacy’ ECM vendors.
