Pros

The people, the founders, the cool opportunities you have access to, and last, but certainly not least—the product. It makes me so happy to see the experiences, relationships, and income Airbnb has brought hosts and guests around the world.

Cons

Hyper growth: the company is growing numbers so fast, it's hard for processes to keep up.

Pros

Airbnb is the type of place that if it fits with you, then it *really* fits. The co-workers are incredibly fun, interesting, talented people who have a lot of stories to share. I always feel at home coming in to the office. Great culture and generally a pleasant place to be. As an engineer, there is a good amount of challenge.

Cons

The culture can lead to long work hours. It's mostly because people are passionate about what they do, but it can make it feel like late nights are expected even if they're not.

Pros

The whole company is moving with a very fast pace. The whole eng team is on a single floor and it's easy to get things done. Very open and friendly culture. Decent compensation with considerable amount of stocks.

Cons

Tech stack has been growing organically in the past which means you need to put some effort to be on top of everything. Eng org is expanding crazily so you must learn to embrace change. Work space is small and a bit noisy. It'll get better once we have another floor. 15+ minutes walk to Bart or Caltrain, which is far enough to make you hate walking. No free parking.
