What would be the typical cause for this Dracaena to get brown tips? It it grows in soil consisting of normal soil in a bag, lots of bark chips and some perlite.

It dries out before every watering. I can see now the roots a coming of the bottom, but it has always been like this, with the brown tips.
It doesn't grow in burning sunlight, but it is situated under a window in the roof. Should it be placed in half shadow, instead?
