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 had my onsites with Airbnb and the recruiter said the feedback was positive, so they want to schedule 2-3 more interviews. One more of the cross functional, and one or two with the management chain. They said this is normal for leadership roles. What to expect from those interviews? I like how Ai...Read more

Just read their CEO's letter or the essay on wanting their employees to requalify for their jobs by showing up 40% better every year. Feel so fed up with this type of leadership style that seems to be more and more common nowadays. So many things wrong about that attitude. Yes it is a competitive wo...Read more
What is the leadership interview at Airbnb like for people management roles ? Any insights ?
Got senior offer from Airbnb (L5) and Amazon (L6) (number TBD, assuming Amazon will be 50k-100k more with cash). Like the culture of Airbnb more than PIP. Company outlook is unclear (layoff + recession). One hesitation is scope: Airbnb is IC and path to staff level is hardly seen. Team scope is sma...Read more
Airbnb has become a leader in it’s space and I think the leadership is exemplary, specially how they pivoted Airbnb towards profitability during COVID-19. With travel resuming in 2021, do you think investing in Airbnb now will produce huge gains like Tesla did in the future? #investments #personal...Read more
It’s a good day to be at Airbnb! Everyone is really impressed and happy with how the leadership listened to employee feedback.

Love the culture, product and leadership at AirBnB. Any kind person willing to refer me for PM roles there?
Stripe made a big change in offer policy: rather than giving a four-year initial rsu grant, they give you a fixed dollar amount stock when every year ends at the value at the time. This is very different from other companies. People joins such a company for its growth while Stripe intentionally cap...Read more
I did each question on Blind 75 4-5 times now (skipped DP, Hard, and Premium). My Amazon SDE-1 loop is scheduled next week. (3 coding rounds, no systems design or object oriented design). I get that Blind 75 helps us recognize the pattern. What else can I do with 1 week away? What are my odds of pa...Read more

Hi blind, I recently got approved from HC as G8, but the offer approval from leadership seems taking much more time than my expectation. It has taken more than 1week. Did anyone have the same experience? Is Airbnb hiring freeze? TC:190k, exp: 4 yrs #airbnboffer
