Pros

If you just graduated from college, working at LinkedIn will definitely make you spoiled! There are amazing perks, and the people/office are awesome! The best work culture.

Cons

The experience at LinkedIn really depends on what department/team you're on, and also who your manager is. I think some managers are not as experienced as others (i.e. first time managers). Also salary is super dependent on what team you are on. Other than the Engineering teams, LinkedIn pays below industry average (they are hoping their perks and brand name will entice people to work for them). Unfortunately, my job falls in that category.

Pros

Amazing perks and nice people. Perks: I was able to purchase new luggage with the help of some internal points for my performance. Unfortunately, I have not traveled since I left the company with the luggage. Travel also changed after I took the job and I was a global traveler.

Cons

I ended up quitting my job to look for a new job in 2024. The exit from the company was extremely poorly managed by my manager and the HR staff. I had a very difficult time networking after I left the job which is funny given that it is a social networking platform. I felt like there was still a presence from the company even after joining She Runs It, a third-party networking platform for women. I expected more from LinkedIn during my departure. I was unaware what impact working at this company could have on my career. They should really help their employees with their next role and applying as a lot of the applications occur on the platform. There was only an opportunity to interview and reach out to people that worked for LinkedIn at B2B, even though I have B2C experience. AI has really complicated the process as well with writing etc. since leaving.
