            Pros

            Company values work/life balance they give one day a month off to everybody in the org.

            Cons

            Every quarter there is a re-org and people leaving. Promotions typically are a popularity contest, not necessarily the people who are working the hardest. Lack of accountability at the lead level.

              Pros

              - Work/life balance is really great (the company has 12 extra company days off per year) - Lots of flexibility in how you work, and lots of autonomy - As a recruiter working at Twitter your job is made easier by the company brand

              Cons

              - Clunky systems to work with (the ATS is dire) - Contractors are treated like a number and offered little protection - Generally quite a bad culture of poor management and some reports of bullying / toxicity in certain teams

                      Can sometimes drive you crazy due to the lack of work/life balance and everything that's being said about the company in the media

                      Anyone interviewed with Airbnb ? What’s the interview process and length of time like? Also, how soon did you hear back after your initial application?

                      Human Resources Generalist

                      Hello everyone! I interviewed for a position back in the beginning of October. There were a few flags in the interview but I still followed up a week later and was told the company was taking there time with the interview process. Fast forward to this week, I get an invite for an in person interview that they set for a random date for a 2 hour time block. After two months of ghosting, should I attend the interview?
