If you want to push or pull your files from devices monitor now android studio offers something better then android monitor. Just take a look at right side of your studio there is an option device file explorer. Open it and you are good to go. Select your device from top dropdown and rest of everything is pretty much the same as it was in android monitor. Below is the screen Shot attached to give you the exact location and idea.
