1. Comp 2. Less toxic as compared to others 3. Slow moving resulting in less pressure (in certain parts)
1. Hires less and only senior people. So no growth path for management and IC. 2. Extreme top down. Nothing happens without CEO's decision making 3. Bi-yearly launches which are better suited for hardware world than software. 4. Lot of super senior people in rest and vest mode.

I see a lot of complaints about our TC 🥜 What’s being discussed in your company’s channel on Blind? No poll here. Please comment #google #meta #amazon #apple #netflix #lyft #uber #airbnb
When I was at FB, its blind channel was full of complaints about crappy code, bad wlb, high stress, etc. and folks advising to switch to Google, Airbnb etc. for a better life. I was there for 4 years, was fed up with the hectic life and moved to Google. Now on Google’s blind channel I see folks co...Read more
Ok here I go too. :) L5 at Google. No number on offers yet but TC is not my priority. Career growth, team and people, company mission, culture fit and WLB are more important to me. Google Pros: many projects/teams to choose, lots of friends & connections, good WLB Cons: too many reorgs, slow career...Read more
From a feedback perspective rather than blatant negative complaint (much too ask here?) What happened to Airbnb’s Web experience? *I haven’t use their app lately.

Hi, I want to share our Airbnb experience to make you all aware of what to do in case the listing is not as expected!

Had a recent stay using Airbnb, paid a high rate (at least to me), and expected an equivalent high quality house. It was over $800 a night for 4 nights, so after taxes and fees it was $5k. Check in was for 3 but I requested a 2:30 check in - host said this is fine. When I arrived, literally all th...Read more
TLDR: I’ve been dating my girlfriend for about a year and I completely lost sexual attraction towards her. She’s poor and recently got laid off. I feel bad for her and feel guilty that I’m thinking of breaking up with her. Long version: I am 35yo “minority” male working as a SWE. I make good money ...Read more
