Process
The interview process was a bit unclear at the beginning.
Additionally, I was not updated on my status for a long time after the interview.
Overall, it was not the best interview I had.

Comp/Benefits/Remote: reason to stay. Nothing else
Engineering Manager • Current Employee
San Francisco, California, United States
November 6, 2025
Pros: - Decent compensation.
- Top-notch benefits.
- Remote-first culture.
- Folks from L1 to L5 are pretty good; they are talented and kind.
Cons: - Leadership (specifically the new VPs of EPD, yes, we have new VPs for Engineering, Product, and Design) is clueless.
- Core: Has nothing interesting to do, and the Engineering LT in Core has an extremely low hiring bar.
- Dash: Talented people, decent LT, no idea how to make people pay for Dash.
- Career growth is almost impossible, especially L4 onwards, unless you are buddies with the right people.

No GLP-1 Coverage
Software Engineer • Current Employee
October 21, 2025
Pros: PPO and HMO options available.
Cons: For Anthem, Dropbox has picked Rightway as the pharmacy benefits manager (PBM) and has opted to not cover GLP-1 medications. Rightway is known to convince employers to not cover these benefits. Dropbox would rather save money than provide comprehensive care.
