Dropbox has the most brilliant engineering team in the Valley. But they've hired fairly weakly on the business side.

  After reading about all of the product's faults in these comments, I hope they don't have the most brilliant engineering team in the valley...

  > Dropbox has the most brilliant engineering team in the Valley. That's definitely been my impression having observed the company for years from outside and from interviewing there just a little while ago. Given their engineering talent, I can't imagine they'd lose the game entirely, but they might indeed struggle on the business side. I was really impressed with the sample of Dropboxers I saw and turning them down was a difficult decision.
