Just found out I have an interview coming up with Box for a software development role. I’m wondering if anyone at Box has worked at Amazon before. Any thoughts on the differences between the two companies? Assuming I even get the offer, is it worth leaving Amazon for Box? I’ve been at amazon for 2 years and I’m ready to GTFO.

Yes you should. I can pretty much tell you for certain you will be at the bottom of band after promo.
Culture and wlb couldn't be more different. Take that as you will
If the TC and role is higher I would jump, otherwise how close to promo are you? Depends on that to jump or not
I just got a new manager last month. We’re targeting promo by December
Not sure about Tc, but the role I’m interviewing for is Box’s equivalent of “SDE 2”
