Great company, but the team sucks
Great company, but the team sucks
Flexible work schedule as long as work is done. Good pay and benefits. Challenging work. Met some of the best engineers.
Career development is a mystery.
While the rest of the Bay Area is moving towards encouraging and recognizing hard-working and dedicated women in technology, I've seen a reverse trend at Box. While there are very good leaders at Box that support career development for engineers at lower levels, there are also some of them who are just so insecure and can really hurt their career growth.
If you are a smart, dedicated engineer and the only woman on your team, you will soon find yourself in situations where you have to allow your team to be really demeaning to you in the name of teamwork. Management goes by pure numbers, so you are at a loss.
