  • I mean the other option would have been to keep these staff and leverage them to drive innovative solutions with your product or possibly close open feature requests and bug submissions. I mean, these 500 people could have worked towards new initiatives to grow the business as they are keenly aware of the drop box business already and would be able to execute quickly on new initiatives. There are so many interesting places that drop box could expand into and they are instead choosing to layoff staff that could get them there.















  • My guess (complete amateur speculation) is that an insane number of people got hooked on opiates due to over prescribed pain meds. The medical industry then stopped doing that so the conveyer belt of new addicts has been turned off. I think the drop in deaths is a trailing indicator for the lower levels of new users that started as legitimate prescriptions. So now, it’s down to the people that would likely have tried opiates without being fed them by the medical industry. Just speculation though.
