Thats a loaded question. In short it depends on your config.

If your config uses pam and runs as the logged in user, than those
directories will need writeable permissions by that user.

It's also possible to make a container run as a configured user say,
ftp/ftp - in which case those dirs would need to be owned/permissioned
correctly.

Also have a look at umask config directive, which may help you out.
