Box Drive - All files organization
Box Drive does not currently allow for organization of your All Files folder.
To reorganize or move folders on this screen, it actively moves the folders, which isn't always possible. Due to different staff members requiring access to only portions of each folder, we cannot bunch together certain folders that would otherwise belong together.
For the all files screen, Box should implement a way to label and organize folders for your own personal box, that does not affect where the files are located and how they are shared. There is a way to do this with the collections list on the side bar, but it is small and challenging to look at, and would be more effective if it was a full screen option.

In the real world, a paper file is stored in a folder that can be stored in one physical location. Digital files are not paper files, but Box treats them as though they are. Where I store a digital file should not affect where another user with access to that file chooses to store the file in their own folder architecture. I should be able to store the same file (not copies of an original) in multiple folders if it makes sense for my workflow. This is how Google Drive works. It is how Box should work.
