Pros

All the regular perks of a tech company - unlimited paid vacation, in addition to 1 week paid time off over Christmas, as well as July 4th. Free food, snacks, drinks. Casual atmosphere - you can wear pretty much anything you want. Full of tattoos and piercings? They embrace that.

Cons

Never get too comfortable with anyone in a leadership position. You can think that you are best friends, and that they really like and respect you; then turn on you on a dime.

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.
