Pros

Since growing up in the public school system (UC Berkeley), I have always had to pave my own path and take care of all my needs. To be honest, I feel like I am in some sort of business fraternity or organization that I am paying for. Instead, I am being catered to in more ways than one (career growth, internal training programs) and being paid to learn at the same time. The benefits are amazing and I'm working with the kindest, smartest, and talented people ever. I am most grateful for all the friendships I have made here. The path from college to working life couldn't have been any smoother. THANKS LINKEDIN <3

Cons

hmmm... The only con is that my second rotation of my program is in Mountain View. I have to travel 2 hours one way for the next four months. It shouldn't be too bad but I am dreading it.

Pros

A focus on learning and development, surrounded by incredibly talented people, they push me to become better, ownership of my role and empowerment to make decisions. Not to mention the people, culture, leadership and perks are amazing.

Cons

A ways to go for gender equality at the Director level plus. However they are investing in women's development programs so I hope they get there. They don't allow dogs in the office. I know, I'm grasping at straws.

Pros

LinkedIn is well respected externally (analysts, partners, members) which helps sales and marketing efforts. The leadership team is attempting to solve large economic challenges which makes for solid employee motivation and corporate vision.

Cons

LinkedIn is still searching for its overarching brand and identity which leads to confusion of purpose within some business units. Also, with rapid hiring over the last few years LinkedIn really had the opportunity to diversify its mix of leaders and employees vs 'more of the same' backgrounds that were hired or promoted. It's difficult to innovate without fresh perspectives.
