What seven years at Airbnb taught me about building a company

This is a really great post, but what makes me sad is how different I felt after multiple experiences dealing with AirBnb&#x27;s customer service. Obviously anecdotal but I&#x27;ve seen dozens of similar stories of both hosts and guests being treated poorly, without respect, and in a &quot;guilty until proven innocent&quot; fashion.<p>I have a whole email thread where I was basically just recited the &quot;policy&quot; multiple times in a case where the host was clearly in the wrong.<p>Anyways. Sounds like a nice culture internally.
