Our philosophy on DEI remains the same: to build an employee base reflecting the diverse customers we serve globally.

We introduced three Diversity Commitments to focus our efforts and build understanding:Īdditionally, we focused on increasing representation of women and underrepresented minorities (URMs 1), held managers accountable in our retention efforts, and helped Dropboxers actively participate in creating an inclusive culture. Our diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts are a major part of our culture, how our systems function internally, and how we think about our business. Looking back on 2020, we made strides in building a diverse employee base, evolving our inclusive culture, and integrating DEI principles into our core business functions.

In 2021, we will expand our DEI programs to focus on the impact that managers can have on their teams and continuing to create more inclusive hiring and recruiting practices.Īt Dropbox, culture is our shared set of values, beliefs, and actions.We launched enABLE, a new ERG focused on neurodiversity and employees with different physical abilities.We created a six-month Truth and Reconciliation program to help Dropboxers understand the root causes of systemic racism against the Black community in the US.Over the duration of the program, 38% of the participants were promoted and 98% were still at Dropbox at the end of 2020. Dropbox LEAD focused on career development and advancement for women and underrepresented minorities early in their careers.Project Maia invited over 130 Dropboxers to share what mattered to them while working at Dropbox and what motivated them to stay, resulting in a 96% retention rate for participants. Project Maia focused on retaining women and URM talent.We launched two programs, Project Maia and Dropbox LEAD:.Dropbox representation of women is 40% company wide and our leadership representation is at 41%.Representation for women and underrepresented minorities (URMs) amongst mid level and above managers and individual contributors increased from 35% to 37% for women and 10% to 11% for URMs.For the fifth consecutive year, women have been promoted at a higher rate than men.
