Pros

Free food which includes breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as fully stocked kitchens; gym, yoga, massages which you can get reimbursed for (not 100% due to taxes).

Cons

Sexism and inappropriate behavior of managers have created a toxic environment for women. Even when escalated to HR, nothing will change as HR only tries for the person who made the claim to go away. The advice from HR consisted of finding a new job. An outreach to the Women in Tech initiative for help was ignored as it appears this initiative is only about the photo ops. The further down you go the more toxic the work environment becomes. A lot of good people have left because lower and middle management consist of managers that should not be in management.

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.
