Pros
  • Remote, so can work from pretty much anywhere.
  • Awesome work-life balance and flexible hours.
  • Interesting roadmap and new products.
  • Smart, kind, and collaborative coworkers. Not like other places I’ve been where people compete against each other. We have a common goal we’re trying to reach.
  • High pay.
  • Nice benefits (like a $7000 yearly perks allowance that you can use on pretty much anything – gym, home office, groceries, restaurants, etc.).
  • Employee-first mindset.
Cons

Entirely remote, so if you don't like that, you probably won't like Dropbox. Personally, I was hesitant at first but love it now, but I know some people prefer hybrid.

The company seems to have slowed down a bit with some upper management churn. They seem to have a clear, multi-product vision we're working towards, but only time will tell.

Advice to Management

Continue treating your employees well and keep working towards a multi-product future. Fail fast and heavily invest in promising new products.
