There is an ever-prevalent sense of entitlement throughout the engineering org.
Lack of basic social skills; people don't believe in greeting others in hallways.
Inexperienced and egoistic managers have caused a lot of damage and attrition in the past year.
If you are a person of color, you may not exist for the rest of them for a long time (I am not a person of color, but I noticed the bias against my colored co-workers).
There still exists a "boys club."
Career growth and mentorship is limited.
Don't work at Dropbox if you are a Product Manager or want to become one in the near future. The attrition rate in the PM org is huge, and the lack of mentorship is appalling. Lots of unhappy PMs.
Fix management issues, and you will attract long-term, experienced employees. Engineers have many options in Silicon Valley; nobody wants to work for jerks!
A friend referred me to a recruiter who contacted me for a phone screen. The phone screen was followed by a technical interview on Coderpad with a software engineer there. Everyone was kind and professional.
A recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn. After a few conversations and a technical phone screen, I went onsite for 5 hours of interviews at the SF HQ. This was followed by dinner at Dropbox. The onsite consisted of: * Two whiteboard problems * A
I asked a tech question, specifically about the "Game of Life." You can find it on LeetCode. The interviewer was really friendly. We also discussed some companies' training processes at the end, after finishing the interview.
