Investing in people and communities
A focus on empowerment
Culture is key
We invite everyone to "bring your ____ self to work," and encourage each person to fill in the blank. That means putting our company culture first with communities that get people connected, while celebrating unique backgrounds and experiences. No matter your location or team, you'll find ways to engage and contribute to our culture.
A welcoming workplace
We build communities that foster growth, connection, and impact. Initiatives include Employee Resource Communities (ERCs) and Employee Interest Communities (EICs) as well as mentorship programs. At our weekly company-wide sync, we share updates on our community efforts and how to get plugged in.
Powering work for nonprofits
We started Box.org with a mission to power how the world does more good together, supporting and empowering nonprofits as they work to achieve their missions. We are a proud Pledge 1% company, mobilizing our products, people, and philanthropy to invest in communities where we work and live.
Global recognition
Our commitment to creating a supportive workplace where Boxers can do their best work continues to earn recognition across leading workplace award lists:
Great Place to Work Certified (US)
Great Place to Work UK’s Best Workplaces for Women 2025
Great Place to Work UK’s Best Workplaces in Tech 2025
Great Place to Work Certified (Poland)
Committed to belonging
We believe in the power of the full-spectrum of global diversity - all the things that make your (__) self you. We are intentional about building diverse and inclusive teams because we believe unique and diverse experiences benefit our culture, our products, our customers, our company, and our world.
Commitment to pay equity
We hold ourselves accountable, which is why we signed the California Equal Pay Pledge. As part of our continued commitment, we conduct an annual company-wide gender pay analysis on hiring and promotion procedures to reduce unconscious bias and structural barriers to equitable compensation. In addition, we externally benchmark the compensation we provide for each role to ensure pay parity, and annually provide regular pay equity updates to our Compensation Committee. Recent analyses indicate that we globally achieved pay equity across gender for employees in similar jobs (accounting for factors such as role, level, and location).
Equal parts learning and listening
Career growth starts with understanding what individuals need to build education, experience, and job exposure. At Box, we support this through learning guides, on-demand training, management tracks, and seasonal programs designed to strengthen critical skills and expand career opportunities.
Equally important, we listen. Our annual employee survey gives every Boxer the opportunity to share feedback, helping us continuously improve programs and shape the employee experience.
Employee health and safety
We prioritize the health and safety of our employees. Box maintains a global Health & Safety framework designed to promote safe, healthy, and supportive working environments across all office locations — with consistent standards covering risk assessments, mandatory training, emergency preparedness, and incident reporting.
Beyond physical safety, we support employee well-being through comprehensive global benefits including healthcare coverage, behavioral health services, wellness subsidies, flexible time off, and parental leave. We also offer mental health resources including coaching and therapy sessions, and ergonomic support for hybrid and remote employees.
Shaping how we work
At Box, we empower our customers and teams to thrive in a work-from-anywhere world. We thoughtfully design events and learning opportunities to drive collaboration and foster community across teams. While we embrace flexibility, we recognize the value of purposeful in-person connection — Boxers near our offices connect in person three days a week to spark innovation and deepen relationships. We equip managers with tools and insights to effectively lead hybrid and distributed teams, ensuring every Boxer has the support they need to do their best work.
Protecting our communities
Our commitment to the well-being of all Boxers extends to innovative solutions such as sound masking systems, relaxation rooms, emergency evacuation teams, annual training sessions, and more. We continuously identify and address potential hazards, emphasizing a proactive approach to health and safety.
