San Francisco-based Dropbox announced this week that it will stop asking employees to come into its offices and instead make remote work the standard practice, even after the coronavirus pandemic ends. From a report: “Remote work (outside an office) will be the primary experience for all employees and the day-to-day default for individual work,” the company said in a blog post. For employees who need to meet or work together in person, the company is setting up “Dropbox Studios” in San Francisco, Seattle, Austin and Dublin when it’s safe to do so. The company extended its mandatory work-from-home policy through June 2021. “We’ll have Studios in all locations we currently have offices — whether they’re dedicated spaces in places we currently have long-term leases and a high concentration of employees (San Francisco, Seattle, Austin, and Dublin to start) or on-demand spaces in other geographies,” the company said. Dropbox had more than 2,800 employees as of Dec. 31, according to its latest 8K.
