How's the attrition rate at your company/org?
A lot of dropboxers have been leaving this year which is really sad. I think my org (dropbox core, engineering/design) has a projected attrition rate of 40% this year if folks leave at the current rate. We have also been onboarding as many folks which is a huge drain between interviewing and onboarding duties...
The biggest reasons given were the shift to perm-wfh and slowed career/business growth. And folks are been not as eager to change jobs last year because of covid uncertainty so I think a lot of the attrition was backlog from 2020. This could be like the tech variant of the Great Resignation?
I am curious if other companies and orgs are seeing a similar pattern? For new and shiny unicorns like stripe and coinbase probably not. :)

Mostly I see DBX folks moving to hot startups, Google, Apple, Airbnb and so on.
