Pros

LinkedIn is a great, exciting place to work. The company truly takes care of employees. Things I love: - Real attention to employees and what they ask for; - Great compensation; - One of a kind culture -- everyone is very nice and generous here and sincerely wants to help you grow as an individual, even if that means moving departments or companies or roles. We work very hard because we care about this company, and everyone recognizes the need for strong balance! - Real impact; everyone's work counts, including starting analysts. The company is growing so fast and it's exciting to see how your work immediately impacts that growth - strong leadership

Cons

- There is a different feel to different departments; LinkedIn values engineering teams the most and sometimes, that means Business/Support teams get left on the sidelines a little bit - It's easy to work long hours and get a little burned out. Everyone is supportive of work-life balance, but you need to make it happen for yourself. There is just too much to do as this company grows and scales so fast.

Pros

Compensation was strong and competitive. The people were genuinely good to work with, and on paper the mission is one you can get behind. Solid brand and a smart, capable workforce.

Cons

Leadership often felt political and opaque. Success was difficult to define clearly, and it frequently seemed like the business quietly picked winners and losers rather than rewarding performance on transparent terms.
