Dropbox Software Engineer reviews

- This is an environment full of brilliant people; there is never a shortage of work-related insight or non-work-related interesting conversation. - The culture is one of dedication to excellence--people truly care about creating a great product and providing a delightful experience for users. - Building a real income-generating product, rather than being an ad-supported platform, is incredibly freeing. It feels great to be working on a product that we can provide to everyone for free, and that provides an experience good enough that some users are willing to pay for more space. - "Work hard, play hard" is cliche, but an accurate description of Dropbox. - The food is awesome.

Biggest pro: the people here are all top-notch and highly motivated, which helps motivate me to do great work too. Many engineers are graduates from top-tier CS schools, or are ex-Google / ex-Facebook. The people here are all easygoing and a lot of fun to hang out with. Culture here is second to none. A lot of autonomy and responsibility is given to the engineers for day to day work. A couple times a year we have a hack week where every engineer at the company is free to work on whatever they want.
