Airbnb’s New Flexible Policy

Airbnb is adopting a “live anywhere, work anywhere” philosophy that allows employees to work remotely full-time and offers many perks such as 90 days of international work and travel.

In an email to employees (posted in the company’s blog) and in a Twitter thread, Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky outlined the new policy in five major points:

Brian Chesky twitter thread
  1. You decide where you want to work – from home or the office
  2. You can move anywhere in the country you work in and it won´t affect your salary
  3. You can work and travel 
  4. We’ll meet up regularly for gatherings
  5. We´ll continue working in a highly coordinated way

Chesky also wrote according to Engadget:

“We want to hire and retain the best people in the world (like you). If we limited our talent pool to a commuting radius around our offices, we would be at a significant disadvantage. The best people live everywhere, not concentrated in one area. And by recruiting from a diverse set of communities, we will become a more diverse company. “
