RECOMMENDED
HOME OFFICE MFP:
HP OFFICEJET PRO 9020
We recommend this
printer for home
offices as it offers
the best value when
it comes to cost
effectiveness, speed, and having
small dimensions. It is also in stock
and wireless!
Don’t be lured by the $200 printers
out there. You will pay the price in
the long run because the inks for
these machines do not last very long
(and thus are more expensive per
page), their printing and scanning
speeds are very slow, and their
durability is low.
Price: $349.89
Print speed: 20 Pages Per Minute
Scan speed: 35 Pages Per Minute
Dimensions (W x D x H):
17.20 x 15.60 x 12.53 in

COMPANIES SPREADING GOODNESS
“I’m pickin’ up good vibrations” - The Beach Boys
Maybe I’m a dreamer,
but I think that small
businesses can help
change the world by
creating environments
that foster a sense of community,
providing more profound meaning
to the workplace. This is a new
section we will be featuring in our
newsletter, where we will highlight
businesses, large and small, that are
doing things differently. The first
business we will highlight is Airbnb:
“Our mission is not merely about
travel. When we started Airbnb, our
original tagline was ‘Travel like a
human.’ The human part was always
more important than the travel part.
What we are about is belonging, and
at the center of belonging is love.”
Like many other businesses, the
uncertainty created by COVID-19
has severely impacted Airbnb, and
their revenues are projected to be
half of what they were last year.
While having to make the tough
decision to lay off 25 percent of
their workforce, they did not just
make swift cuts and move on.
Instead, they took the time to
provide details about how they
were making cuts, and put together
programs to help their departing
team members make the tough
transition:
Alumni Talent Directory — We will be
launching a public-facing website to
help teammates who are leaving find
new jobs. Departing employees can
opt-in to have profiles, resumes, and
work samples accessible to potential
employers.
ALUMNI PLACEMENT TEAM
For the remainder of 2020, a
significant portion of Airbnb
Recruiting will become an Alumni
Placement Team. Recruiters that
are staying with Airbnb will provide
support to departing employees to
help them find their next job.
RISESMART
We are offering four months of
career services through RiseSmart,
a company that specializes in career
transition and job placement services.
EMPLOYEE-OFFERED ALUMNI
SUPPORT
We are encouraging all remaining
employees to opt into a program to
assist departing teammates in finding
their next role.
LAPTOPS
A computer is an essential tool to
find new work, so we are allowing
everyone leaving to keep their Apple
laptops.
