Dropbox CEO: working from home is the way to work in the future. Trust is better than surveillance.

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Coje_He for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, Oct. 16 (Xinhua)-- Dropbox CEO officer Drew Houston (Drew Houston) continues to promote a telecommuting culture, telling other big technology companies that working from home is the way to work in the future, Fortune reported.

According to the Houston interview, the company adopts the 90max 10 rule, which means that 90% of the time of the year is spent telecommuting and the remaining 10% of the time is spent on remote work for a small number of employees.

CTOnews.com noticed that when asked about his advice on CEO, which believes in the RTO plan (returning to the office), Houston said: "I would say, 'your employees have a choice. They are not resources that can be controlled.'"

"you need a different social contract and give up control. But if you trust employees and treat them like adults, they will act like adults and trust is better than surveillance." He added.

Houston co-founded Dropbox in 2007 and estimates his net worth at $2.1 billion, according to Forbes. His approach is in sharp contrast to other companies.

JPMorgan Chase requires some employees to work in the office five days a week and track attendance by monitoring their ID card swipes.
