Expecting an offer from Airtable but I am somewhat hesitant to move forward after the series F valuation at $11 billion. Is there any upside left? Can they x2 to $22B and beyond?

A $25-50b valuation is doable. $50-100b will get challenging.
So yeah, come join us. You’ll like it here.
Eventually what you are looking at as an employee is an IPO.
Given the recent correction in high-growth tech / IPO stocks, over half of the 2021 IPOs are already below IPO price.
Within the B2B Saas universe - For every snowflake, there are UiPath JFrog Freshworks Couchbase Sprinklr Squarespace Coursera Toast type companies that are trading below IPO price already.
I would be skeptical of blindly trusting any Decacorn valuation that has raised funding in the last year and check if that valuation is backed up by revenue and growth.
Do remember that VCs need 2-3 in 10 late-stage companies to pop and do well post IPO to make returns, not too wise to drink their kool-aid.
I am saying all this despite joining a company pre-IPO that went IPO and did well.
Hope this helps anyone looking to join a Pre-IPO company.
The multiples in private markets have gone crazy in the last 1 year. Up from 30-40x to 80-100x in private markets from what I hear. Not all companies can exit at that valuation.
Airtable has a cool product, good culture, benefits, pay, talent, and wlb.
