Pros

Free food, benefits, vacation, casual work environment, co workers are experienced and helpful, good company to have on resume.

Cons

They just don't care about their employees. Forgot my exit interview nor did they even care to do it. Went through the purchase of lynda.com and it was awful. There is no transparency, no one knows what is going on and it is totally a fear based culture of perform or your job is no more. Had the absolute worst manager of my career who was very disconnected and not qualified to do their job. If you are lucky to get a good manager who cares about advancing your career, then great- otherwise you will be blocked with no hope of getting to another position and leaving is the only alternative and doing the same job forever and things are totally not fair. It was an awful, very stressful experience and you are basically working in a boiler room.

Pros

LinkedIn has a strong engineering culture, smart and supportive teammates, and meaningful product impact at a large scale. I have had opportunities to work on complex systems, collaborate with experienced engineers, and learn from cross-functional partners across product, design, data, and infrastructure. The benefits, flexibility, and internal learning resources are also strong.

Cons

Because the organization is large, decision-making can sometimes be slow, and priorities may shift before projects fully mature. Promotion expectations can feel different across teams, and the number of meetings can make it harder to protect deep-focus engineering time. Cross-team ownership is not always as clear as it could be.
