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.

There were a series of layoffs today at Airbnb, including 30% of recruiting. Much smaller than what we did in 2020, but go ahead and add us to the list of tech layoffs in 2023.

Dang, I thought airbnb said they weren't doing layoffs. 30% seems high. Condolences to everyone affected.
Airbnb lays off 1900 of its employees today. how much of that is from engineering? and US location? what is the #severance package being offered? any buffer for H1B employees? https://www.sfgate.com/business/article/Airbnb-lays-off-a-quarter-of-its-staff-15248480.php #layoff #severance
Heard airbnb is pleanning to laying off employees this week. Is this true? #airbnb #uber #lyft
What is airbnb waiting for? They should do some clean up and follow suit to Uber and Lyft. It has around 13000 employees! In my view 1300 should be enough to run the site #airbnb #lyft #uber #tripadvisor #google #amazon #tech
Hi This news broke. As we all expect Airbnb wud have layoffs since the whole business is based on travel. Is something else going on inside or it’s just bonuses which is being held as of now?

Both Airbnb and Uber had some major lay-offs recently. What’s the energy like these days? Bearish or Bullish? #airbnb #uber
Was in the loop but then suddenly recruiter email bounced back. Was there layoff there right now?
Hi everyone I hope all is well! Unfortunately this past week I was laid off from Airbnb with the massive cuts they had to make. Although very devastating I am trying to be proactive and start my job search. I was hoping to possibly get a referral for Spotify, Microsoft or Electronic Arts. I apprecia...Read more
https://twitter.com/street_insider/status/1259843322945966084?s=21 If booking data looks so awesome why did you have to lay-off? Couldn’t wait few months? So either this latest stuff is bs or Coronavirus was a perfect set up to remove some employees. What a tool ceo. All last decade startup CEOs ...Read more
First of all exteremly sorry to hear about the layoffs. You guys are some of the top talents in tech. You will get a job (in fact an awesome job) soon! Creating this poll to get insights into the roles of folks who lost their jobs from these hot startups. #layoffs #uber #lyft #airbnb
Read some article from Oct 2023 that the ceo asked if he could bring back any of the 1900 employees from 2020 layoffs, which sounds really impressive. Curious as to how the company has been this way while other companies do cuts despite of record making profits
