Eric Cox, Dropbox's chief customer officer, is stepping down to spend more time with his family, remaining temporarily to assist with the transition until mid-August. His departure follows a period of slowed revenue growth and significant workforce reductions, as the company pivots towards AI-driven tools like Dropbox Dash. This change reflects ongoing challenges in maintaining executive stability amid strategic transformations.
Dropbox is laying off 20% of its global workforce, equating to 528 roles, as part of a transition in its business model, according to CEO Drew Houston. This decision follows a previous 16% reduction in April 2023, driven by slowing growth and the need for a more efficient organizational structure. Affected employees will receive 16 weeks of pay plus additional compensation based on tenure.

Oh snap! Failed to reconnect with the server. This is typically caused by a longer network outage, or if the server has been taken down. You can try to reconnect, but if that does not work, you need to reload the page.
Oh man! The server rejected the attempt to reconnect. The only option now is to reload the page, but be prepared that it won't work, since this is typically caused by a failure on the server.
