Pros

Everything about Airbnb, from the people, to the ceo, to the free nature and archetecture, there's so much to love.

Cons

It's getting to be a pretty large company.

Pros

The pros are too long to list. If you enjoy being part of building a company or continuing to learn new skills this is your company. Also, by far the greatest group of people in the best work environment I can imagine.

Cons

It's really hard to find a con in this company. Nothing is perfect and you can't expect Airbnb to be any different. If anything, it's work/life balance but if you enjoy what you are doing, it doesn't feel like work.

Pros

Fantastic benefits including food, travel coupons, schedule flexibility. My direct lead is fantastic and I feel as though this company has built a family of close friends. Airbnb prides itself on making sure we feel part of a bigger community as well as maintaining a unique (and fun!) work culture. The workspaces provide a great environment you can feel comfortable doing your job in. Lots and lots of social opportunities happening, so there is always something to do with your coworkers after you clock out, if that's your thing. Also free booze!

Cons

Compensation is competitive, however climbing the ladder to the next level can prove difficult. This company is trying to figure out how to promote and retain employees, but in the meantime you have to find your own place in the company by making the right connections (that political b.s.). Upper management seems aloof of the day-to-day workflows and job requirements. They arbitrarily make unreasonable goals without ever asking for employee feedback and/or understanding the nature of the work we do.
