Dropbox rented a huge office for 400 employees
Despite the emergence of cheaper competitors and security holes , the Dropbox business continues to grow at a rapid pace. What can I say: more than 200 million files are saved every day via Dropbox, and the daily audience exceeds 25 million people (this is the statistics for April, now probably more).
The startup has already grown out of short pants and recently it became known that the company is preparing to receive $ 200-300 million investment, based on an estimated value of $ 5 billion . Yes, Dropbox was valued at $ 5 billion, and there’s no need to talk about the dot-com bubble again.
To master this amount will not be easy. There is only one good and proven way: to remove a huge chic office and hire a large number of employees. Dropbox decided to go the beaten track. According to TechCrunch , the company has just completed the process of preparing for the move from the current office of 1022 m 2 to the new office of 8120 m 2 . The new building is located in the same San Francisco near the old one. The company's staff will be increased from 65 to 400+ people.
On the one hand, it’s hard to guess what the 400 Dropbox staff will do. On the other hand, you will not find a company worth $ 5 billion that would have fewer employees (by the way, this logic works in the opposite direction, that is, if you want to increase the value of the company to $ 5 billion, you need to hire at least 500 people). However, they will still have something to do .
