Airtable allows users to create and collaborate on spreadsheets and relational databases without having to write lines of SQL code. It's most often used for customer-relationship management, project management, workflow planning and inventory.
In this sense, the concept is similar to the likes of Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel, but the fact that it functions as a database while remaining as easy to use as a spreadsheet is what sets it apart. So too does the fact that it can be used to build apps using Airtable’s own library of User Interface tools.
Whilst startups, including NocoDB, are setting out to challenge Airtable's industry-leading position, since launching in 2012, the business has grown pretty spectacularly, amassing an $11 billion valuation. The company also boasts an impressive (and evergrowing) list of customers using its cloud based platform, including Netflix, Expedia, Medium and Shopify.

Airtable empowers Airtablets to be their best selves. Even during the interview process there was a passionate emphasis on culture add vs culture fit. This is even more impressive when you see the scale and growth of Airtable; yet still, the people are what drive this. Furthermore, there is dedicated time on a frequent cadence to explore career goals and ambitions and it’s evident this passion is two ways.

I’ve always sold SaaS solutions to a very specific use case and persona. What I absolutely love about Airtable is the sheer opportunity to challenge the status quo. Because we empower users to create simple workflows, at scale, using shared data - the use cases are endless. And not to mention, just how powerful the actual tool is.

Everyone seems to be aligned to the same overarching mission. Within the first few weeks, I met with every leader and at least a few team members per team in the first few weeks. What is evident is that being curious is encouraged and there is no gap divide between access. In fact, our CRO during a AMA spoke passionately about wanting to create a incredible place to work and actively crushing out any type of politics you might see/hear in other fast growing SaaS companies.

One thing I was looking for when applying for companies is seeing how much I would be valued as an employee. In previous roles I've had I was treated as if I could easily be replaced even though I was working overtime and extremely hard to better the company. Airtable is the complete opposite of this even if I improved 1% more than my metric from the previous day I would be applauded for this. It's really motivating and pushes you to work harder in the company.
