They could store the decryption key separately (in a different network/vault) with audit trail. They could still be able to decrypt the docs, but it would be harder to break in. I believe google and amazon do that already.

Of course, this doesn’t mean it is end-to-end encrypted as most people infer “encrypted” to mean, otherwise we could call Dropbox and Google Drive encrypted services.
