Not working on Mailbox. Still bitter about them cutting that product.

But seriously, it's a bit odd. Dropbox's product seems fairly mature. Are these sales staff, or developers, or...?

Reading between the lines, it sounds like Dropbox is going all out to build up a sales team so they can be more like Box, and I imagine the bulk of those new hires were picked up for their skills in cold calling, not coding.
