Pros

I left Box for personal reasons, not because of anything wrong there, and now that I'm going through a new job search I realize what a cool place it was! Engineering management has good leadership and works really hard for its teams health. A lot of emphasis on doing the right thing. Tons of hard problems to solve

Cons

Engineering projects are daunting in the face of technical debt, compliance/security requirements, and disjointed direction from PMs.

Pros

Competitive compensation and decent earning potential depending on segment. Opportunity to manage complex deal cycles. Broad product suite allows for cross-sell and solution-based selling. Active founder-led company

Cons

Poor management quality and leadership decisions can impact morale. Culture can feel less dull and lack energy especially compared to faster-growing tech companies. Selling the product can feel little exciting. Internal processes and decision-making can feel bureaucratic.
