I just upgraded to 5.0 and the new drop down menu that's supposed to be on the top left side isn't there. Do I have to enable it or is something else wrong?

You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden, so you need to hide the Menu bar via View > Toolbars, also accessible via Firefox > Options.
If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.
You can place the Tab Bar on top.
