Not a good workplace for parents
Not a good workplace for parents
Dropbox has a strong company culture with a focus on impact. If you are willing to be bold and put in long hours, it is possible to be very successful at the company.
I would not recommend Dropbox for parents of young children. Many (possibly most) employees leave the company within two years of having a new child. At the time I left, the consensus among the members of the employee resource group for parents was that the situation is not likely to improve until one of the founders has a kid.

Dropbox Interview Experiences
Software Engineer
The interview process was a coding assessment and a phone screen. The coding assessment was a design question consisting of four parts. It increased in difficulty and involved designing a system to do a certain task.

Phone interview: The question was to find all duplicate files in a file system. Follow-up questions included: * What if files are large? * What if files are small? The interviewer was kind of indifferent.

After the resume screen, the second stage was a coding interview. I was asked one question related to recursion, specifically to find a duplicate file in a filesystem. This was conducted in a browser-based text editor.
