Pros

I could not imagine life anywhere else. This company offers great benefits and truly cares about their employees well-being. There is lots of room to grow either within your position or a different department if you work hard towards your goal. There are two many pro's to name but a few of them definitely are: -Great intelligent employees -Family environment -Great culture -No micro management -Lots of room to grow etc.

Cons

Things change a little fast sometimes with Airbnb still being a start-up company. It can get a little stressful and overwhelming. It also seems like there may be a little favoritism within the teams sometimes which causes the wrong people to get promoted faster than others. Another thing that bothers me is the lack of family friendliness - although there has been recent positive change.

Pros

-Genuinely collaborative and supportive culture. I've experienced this working with people across all departments. -Caliber of hiring for unique combination of functional expertise + cultural fit. The result is a cool blend of great people from the early days, as well as experts from their respective areas, all working together well. -More data-driven decisions than some aesthetic-driven decision from early days. I've met some of the smartest and friendliest data-scientists here, all who have surfaced interesting insights from our data. -Accessibility and transparency of senior leadership. I'm amazed that, even at our company's size, there are still at least weekly company-wide meetings where we can hear about various topics from Brian and other senior leaders.

Cons

-Operations and internal processes are generally quite inefficient, but things are getting better. Its a downside of the rapid growth, but sometimes its difficult figuring out who decides on what and how those things should be coordinated through the org. -IT infrastructure still somewhat start-up grade, but improving quickly. Wifi seems to go down regularly (and sometimes power does too).
