Box

Employees say:

"The people here are fantastic, caring, and fun. They make going to work easy, especially as a remote worker. Everyone, for the most part, is quite approachable. The transparency is phenomenal. Even though we have 2000+ people who work at Box, we have a weekly call to go over how we are doing as a business. Individuals have the opportunity EVERY WEEK to ask our execs questions. And we get their honest answers."

Employees say: 

"Box is one of the few companies where the people actually put care and thought into how employees are treated and how they can contribute greatly here. I think the company and its leaders truly care about the balance of the employees which in turn delivers great business output." 

Box’s commitment to its employees goes well beyond the office. It matches employee donations to a wide variety of nonprofits in full, and offers staff days off from work for volunteer service. Eight diverse former and current nonprofit CEOs serve on the Box.org Advisory Council, consulting with the cloud-computing services firm on its strategy and direction, and providing specific guidance on how to advance its goals, such as ensuring child welfare and supporting environmental causes.
 

Box has upgraded its offices to match its environmental objectives, adding water stations for refillable bottles, supplying compostable plates and utensils, and installing EV-charging stations—measures that it estimates have collectively reduced Box’s greenhouse gas emissions by more than 300,000 kilograms.

The firm has also made a practice of taking a stand against racism and hate-fueled violence. Box has signed a Working With Cancer pledge, an AAPI pledge, a letter to the Senate advocating for gun reform, and numerous other statements in the public interest.

• “I truly feel like I can be myself at work,” one Box employee said. “In addition, the compensation at Box is aligned with inflation and ahead of market trends. Most companies would penny-pinch, but Box gave me what they felt I deserved.”
