Pros

I miss the people of Dropbox badly. They're some of the best & brightest. The benefits and perks are off the charts. There's a culture of transparency that's pretty impressive for a company of its size and influence.

Cons

Many of the leaders have little to no experience outside of Dropbox. The lack of structure & role clarity is sometimes worn as a badge of honor, but it often leads to duplicate work, cyclical feedback, and stunted professional growth. I was really sad to say goodbye to my coworkers, but extremely eager to go somewhere more mature.

Pros

Benefits: - Personal wellbeing allowance - Annual performance bonus - Equity - Internet & cell phone reimbursement

Cons

Very little room for growth. No real sense of job security due to the constant layoffs. Execs chase the latest and greatest trends, only to abandon projects halfway through. There’s no real sense of leadership or direction—where’s the company headed? What’s the actual goal of [xyz] project?
