Pros

I love the culture here. Everyone is super nice and supportive. I received plenty of training for my role and was set up for success. I am given lots of opportunities to grow and I am listened to when I have ideas or goals for the future. I love the flexibility of working from home, but the people in Chicago make going to the office something to look forward to. I can always trust my managers to support and look out for me. I can close my laptop at the end of the day and live my life outside of work with no expectations outside of working hours or anxiety. And also the job is just fun!

Cons

My salary is not the easiest to live on in Chicago. It seems like they pay everyone relatively well, and I know that my salary is decent for this role so I'm very grateful, but it would still be nice if even the most entry level positions were paid enough to afford the cost of living here.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
