Airbnb

The people are amazing: passionate, competent, quirky, and interesting.

The perks are fantastic.

The rapid growth makes it a great place to learn, as you're constantly solving new technical and social problems.

You can really own your impact and find the best projects for yourself. This requires being able to argue for your point of view, but learning how to do that is a great opportunity in itself.

The company really does care about the users and has a fundamentally positive impact on the world.

The office is crazy crowded, which can make it hard to focus. Hiring lots of new grads means a lot of time is spent answering questions and trying to train the recruits. Also, the interview load is pretty heavy. People tend to work a lot, so it can be hard to define boundaries and disconnect.

First and foremost, trust your people! There's no need to personally involve yourself in every project.

Let people work on what's viable instead of coming up with dozens of pie-in-the-sky ideas while leaving basic problems unsolved.

Focus on the core experience, which still needs a lot of work.
