Pros

Like many other "boomerangs", I left Dropbox and then decided to return after working elsewhere. Dropbox can't be beat when it comes to:

  • ability to work remotely from almost anywhere
  • flexible work hours + solid work-life balance
  • paid time off and extended paternity/maternity leave
  • compensation
  • majority of coworkers are good people who are easy to work with
  • I respect the majority of engineers' ability to do their job well
  • management doesn't do evil stuff
Cons

Product churn can be an issue, so product teams tend to get reorganized every 6 months to a year. The stock has been pretty much flat since the IPO. Interview questions are hard to pass.

Advice to Management

Honestly, just keep it up! So many of us have come back to Dropbox because it is a great place to work.
