Pros

Great benefits, but that's honestly it.

Cons

This place stinks of high school drama and popularity scores. If you're an introvert, expect to be stepped on and given no opportunity for advancement. You will not be promoted if you do great work but don't join the activities. If you don't drink the Kool-Aid, you will be put in a corner and told that your attitude is terrible. Ultimately, LinkedIn's leadership is more concerned with feeling cool than they are about creating an environment to facilitate growth for all types of people.

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.
