This will depend on company policy, but in general, the answer varies. My team has set a best practice to have all files placed and managed on our Google Drive and NOT a local drive. Files maintained on a local drive are likely to be lost forever. If the person is terminated or submits their two weeks, it is dependent on them to transfer files...that's a big risk in my book. Instead, shared drives are becoming the standard. In terms of project archives, it is protocol for all documents associated with a project (i.e. a Workfront project) to be attached to the project. It helps for traceability. All-in-all, I think that moving file management to the cloud is the most appropriate action in this day and age.
