If you can't share your own data, you need to generate random data or use one of the example datasets that are provided for exactly this purpose. — mwaskom

You have to specify the size in the pairplot (or other plot) command.

plt.figure()
sns.pairplot(attrition_df, size=2.5, aspect=1)

size equals the height of the facet (subplot) in inches, and the width in inches equals aspect*size

pairplot has the option size, which controls the size, in inches, of each facet.

From the pairplot docs:

size : scalar, optional

Height (in inches) of each facet.

Altering this will control the size of the subplots, and also the overall figure size, e.g.

sns.pairplot(attrition_df, size=3, ...)
