Always learning and growing

Pros

Airbnb hires some of the brightest and open minds. People are extremely genuine and authentic in the interactions with others. The mission and values are very alive. It's an incredible environment to learn and grow. The company genuinely cares about the employees. This is a place where I can see myself growing happily for many years.

Cons

There are too many opportunities and good ideas to implement even 10% of them. The Founders and leaders have gotten much better at focusing but there are still issues with competing priorities around the company.

Pros

Great people, opportunities, growth and freedom.

Cons

Still a start-up feel so there's little structure put in place (which is awesome for builders like me!)

Pros

It's nice to have food and coffee everyday without having to think about it. It's also nice not to have to grocery shop anymore living in SF. I'm a big fan of dogs in the office (since I like most of them more than the humans)

Cons

Management is a uneducated group of thugs who don't have any real-world people management experience. Airbnb needs to invest in a management team (from the top down) that understands people management and employee retention- not just those who repeat what HR says to them with deaf ears. HR - This is a group you go to when you have an issue and need help deciding on the best options available for you. I hardly talk to HR as I've heard nothing but horror stories of the team overall. Ive had colleagues talk to HR and mysteriously "quit" very soon after. It's honestly a bit crazy. Airbnb likes to promote from within. This means they promote individuals who lack essential skills to grow and scale teams and processes.
