An Inspiring Place to Work

Pros

Airbnb is a challenging and stimulating place to go everyday. The vibe is very social and there are many people I'm excited to speak to everyday. One must believe in the company's mission to thrive in such a demanding environment.

Cons

Work/ life balance is a joke. You must have a passion and integration for what you do and who you are to work here. The company is growing very quickly and the lack of organization reflects that.

Cons

Airbnb has some of the standard challenges of a hyper-growth company, but none that even slightly outweigh the pros.

Best job ever

Pros

I'm in my 50's and have been working forever, and this is by far the best job I have ever had. I've never worked for a company where the product makes me so warm and fuzzy. Bringing people together, helping people, changing the world for the better, those are all things that make this product so special. We are not just building cloud storage, or an Ads framework, we are building something that really touches people and makes a difference. We are building experiences, memories, relationships, who else does that? Truly a special company filled with people that are incredibly passionate about it.

Cons

I wish I would have joined sooner.
