Box

A culture where interns are actually treated like full members of the team. I was asked to do things that no one on my team had figured out yet. There was no solving a problem and packaging it into an "intern project" for an intern to implement.

Free hot lunch and dinner every day, hot breakfast on Friday, micro-kitchens on every floor, kombucha, snacks, classic arcade-style gaming rigs, scooters, basketball hoops, bike room, ping pong, Smash, board games, educational workshops, and really cool intern-only events. Box is a very fun place to be.

We have two pretty large buildings and don't use both of them, so it's unusually easy to find a quiet place to whiteboard and work for a flat office plan company.

People really care about one another. People are very willing to help you and are very open to critiques and questions about their solutions.

I worked on the platform as a service team, so deploying code was relatively quick and easy. The interns who worked on services outside of our platform had a lot of difficulty pushing their code.

You guys are all incredible about taking feedback, but it seems to take a long time for many processes to really change.
