What is the best way to organize folders for a company?
We have been using dropbox for years but with somewhat limited oversight and guidance. I was tasked with cleaning things up, removing outdated files, and creating a naming convention and SOP. We are a product company and right now our main structure is folders at the department level. Thought about reversing that and creating product level folders that have subfolders for each department. We can also have department level folders that just contain general subfolders, and resources. This idea was not well received so I am open to any and all feedback and suggestions.

Hi mjk23, thanks for messaging the Community!
It really depends on what is best for your company, and ease of use in accessing the data. There isn't any universal system which works for all teams.
Provided that you make them aware of the changes you're suggesting, and where to find specific items or folders, it should work well.
I'll leave this post for other users to comment their suggestions.
