Box employees, Can you please share some insights? I have an interview opportunity. I was at Box's conference last week and heard from partners that customers are moving to Microsoft. Microsoft is heavily investing and throwing away storage for cheap. The attendance at Box's conference was lacklustre. I know employees who have moved on. Stock is not doing well. How's the morale in the company?
What happened to Box? It used to be a good company. Is Microsoft the reason for Box's downfall?
Storage is cheap and big guns can do it at a loss & with more features. Plus captive biz customers who already use MS or G suite
Yes this. Microsoft is basically using us for an AB test. They just implement whatever works best for us 2 quarters later. With their enterprise muscle they can do that

Sad to see but they are dying
Morale is decent. Box is focusing on selling large companies enterprise add ons providing functionality other services don't. Companies that just want file sync and share aren't the focus, stock performance is due to people that don't understand that.
What add ons is Box selling that Microsoft and Google cannot?
Moral is mixed, depending on what org you are in. Many people have moved on, many others want to. Keep your options open.
I am interested too. I donât see them as a storage company. Relay, shield and partner integration means you can build business processes on top of box and can work with all big applications. Itâs great strategy for companies who uses apps outside of ms and g. And thatâs where itâs differentiated from Microsoft. I see great long term potential or acquisition outcome. But if box employees are not bullish then I must be missing something!
