Top cloud storage firm Dropbox has confirmed that it will be laying off one in five workers as part of a broader cost-cutting measure to tackle an evolving landscape.
The approximately 20% reduction in headcount, or 528 employees, will take place as part of what CEO Drew Houston described as a “transitional period.” The company also terminated 500 contracts in 2023, and a further 300 in 2021, as the tech sector grappled with a tough economy.
