Here is what I went through:
Since I was under an NDA, they just asked you a bunch of questions. They sent you a prep sheet for them, like robots.
They asked their scripted garbage and then repeatedly, for hours on end, asked, "Let's suppose that didn't go well," over and over and over. As if that were actually insightful to the industry – it isn't.
If you said anything positive about Dropbox, they didn't care. They had brainwashed their interview crew to only ask "if it went wrong" questions for the entirety of the process.
If one of their recruiters asked you to do one more chat after the virtual onsite, claiming it was an informational interview, that was a lie. They also probably failed to send the prep sheet on time and failed to respond at the times they committed to. Literally the worst recruiting team I have ever experienced.
Overall, Dropbox isn't the company in interviews that they claim to be with their values. They are a company with hiring managers who only care about themselves. If you posed a threat to them, you would get weeded out.
In my case, that did not happen, but I shut them down anyhow.
Overall, I would tell people to avoid Dropbox. All you need to do is look at their stock performance over the last few years to realize that they aren't growing because of their horrid hiring process and lack of vision.
