If you want to emulate a "slide-down" effect you can add an extra wrapper to your submenu elements and use translate like this:

Warning: You are using a lot of fixed positions that will lead you into issues later for responsive layouts and some are unnecessary like the ones for the arrows

.dropbtn {
  background-color: #4CAF50;
  transition: 0.3s;
  color: white;
  padding: 16px;
  padding-right: 32px;
  font-size: 16px;
  border: none;
  cursor: crosshair;
  border-radius: 2px;
}
.dropdown-content {
  position: absolute;
  width:100%;
  overflow:hidden;
}
.dropdown-content > div {
  background-color: #f9f9f9;
  transform:translateY(-100%);
  box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
  transition:transform 1s;
}
.dropdown-content a {
  color: black;
  padding: 12px 16px;
  text-decoration: none;
  display: block;
}
.dropdown-content a:hover {
  background-color: #f1f1f1;
  color: #000000;
