Pros

Core values are consistent and adopted across the entire company. Everyone can recite most of the LinkedIn values by heart. The Executive Leadership team is extremely transparent and inspiring. The company is filled with smart people who are striving to build a top-notch product. And don't forget the endless perks. Employees are treated very well. Free breakfast/lunch/dinner at cafeterias that are comparable to high quality restaurants. Even the break-rooms are stocked with healthy snacks. Free shuttle from SF. No paycheck deductions for medical/dental/vision. One day a month reserved for side projects/volunteer activities. I can go on and on. The pride just oozes out of each and every employee.

Cons

401K match wasn't the best. A load of talent has departed within the last couple of years (old-timers who's stock options have fully vested), which can potentially impact the culture. Can be a little cut-throat due to "stack ranking" system, but it also promotes healthy competition.

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.
