Box’s market cap is $2.5 bil, so that’s still $85 mil. If he can take actions that increase their market cap 10%, that’s still $8.5 mil for him personally. I feel like his interests are still very aligned with “grow Box”, even if he isn’t given more equity.

True, but he could always divest before leaving. In theory that seems like the right move if he's undercompensated, assuming that his motives are purely financial, that the market has valued the company correctly, and that his career won't suffer from "quitting".
