How is race or ethnicity talked about at Box?

- powerful and useful product to build, sell and improve - international environment where you can thrive and polish your stakeholder management skills and English command - generous employee benefits and SWAG (for example, +1 PTO day for your birthday) - nice office(s) in Warsaw - opportunities to grow horizontally and doing internal mobility movements - great office and company events - investing in EB heavily - stable contract of employment and offering RSUs - you can make some friends and meet smart people, if you're lucky :) - there are some decent Engineering Managers out there

- Company Values are just on the paper and Make Your Mom Proud means nothing, because there is no human decency and morality among Leadership (for example: offering candidates way below the internally approved salary ranges just because the candidates had lower salary expectations) - Leadership / Directors are always right, they are not open to hear feedback or improve anything, they just wanna hear praises and nice things - there's back stabbing and gossips everywhere so better watch yourself - removing uncomfortable people is a norm, especially when they could get in the way of a Manager being promoted or they would reveal his incompetence - Managers care more about their promotion than promoting their direct reports - there are managers with no people management skills whatsoever, micromanagers encouraging people to work from their vacation and sick leaves, not supporting taking more than a week of PTO, during 1:1's talking more about their travels, plans or loans in francs than about your work and how to unblock you, thriving a culture of blame, fear, silence, obedience and working over hours; gossiping and complaining about other people and other direct reports with you during your 1:1's, if they got a negative feedback in the employee surveys they were provoking weird conversations and sharing guesses who was the author the negativre feedback, not interested in any feedback or improvement because they considered a direct report can't give them feedback; led several direct reports to burnout, ending in a hospital or having a severe breakdown, masters of gaslighting - the most toxic work culture I ever experienced with corporate politics and playing games - no work life balance if you work from Europe - I've seen people who were fired unfairly just because their Managers didn't like them and wanted to get rid of them

- Box provides very good compensation to most roles. - Some flexibility in where you work; if you were hired remotely, you continue to be supported as a remote employee. - A culture of team work; if you need support on a project, you will find it. So many smart, capable and kind people work at Box. - Decent transparency from leadership, with regular insights into business decisions, industry trends, etc. - The company will obviously attempt to squeeze as much productivity out of you as possible, but if you know how to create and maintain healthy work-life balance for yourself, you can achieve it.

- Very hectic ways of working; "urgent (to me)" work is often incorrectly conflated with "valuable" work, causing a lot of spin, scope creep, etc. So many employees express chronic high stress as a result. - An overwhelming amount of noise; blocks of text on slack that get lost, too many zoom calls that could have been emails, weekly all-company meetings (so expensive to put on, so little value in return). A lack of focus from across the business that only makes us look "busy" without actually being productive. - They have a "norm" or "expectation" for employees tied to an office to come into the office at least two days a week despite good business performance and high employee satisfaction while remote. Leadership claims this is for improved innovation or collaboration, but can point to no evidence that pushing employees to the office actually bears fruit. - The company clearly prioritizes shareholders above all else, often at the expense of the employees. Multiple years of "limited cash" for merit and/or promotion raises due to "the macro". Absolutely no adjustments in pay despite rising cost of living expenses and increased monetary burden for employees in expensive metro areas who are being pushed to "return to office". And yet, they have plenty of cash for stock buy backs and dividends. Corporate boiler plate nonsense when employees raise concerns about inequitable compensation, siting "tradeoffs" as though this was some kind of inevitable outcome. - Culture carrying roles (employee resource group leads, "chief fun officers", etc.) are not compensated for this labor. These roles disproportionately fall to members of marginalized groups (e.g. women, lgbtqia, bipoc, etc.). Company is overwhelmingly white and cis male.

Good product pipeline and potential with Box AI CEO and CFO co-founders are open and care about the company

Low percentage of women and minority in director+ level Culture is overrated, Office politics and favoritism exist just like any other company. Silent firing and limited budget for equity and raises
