      Great Culture, World-Class Leadership

      Pros

      Exceptional cultural values, inclusion and diversity, global collaboration and teamwork, mentorship, and career growth and learning opportunities. Remarkable balance of corporate and community purpose; company is making profit by helping connect global workforce members with economic opportunities. LinkedIn leadership, from C level to mid-level managers, walk the walk and make sure every employee is there to transform themselves, the company, and the world. To make is simple for reader, I wake up every day to get to work. LinkedIn is the first company in my 18-year professional life where contributing to its success and growth brings me full joy.

      Cons

      Company's fast growth might dilute some of the great advantages of LinkedIn culture, however to this day it hasn't happened despite even though LinkedIn doubled in size over last 2 years.

      Pros

      Since starting at LinkedIn about a year ago, I have discovered an amazing community of smart, motivated, and interesting people at LinkedIn. This place has an incredible capacity to help you grow personally and professionally. Basically on day one I was asked by my manager "what do you want to do next, and how can we help you get there?"

      Cons

      Can't think of any, but know that my concerns would be heard if I had any.

      LinkedIn is truly an amazing company

      Pros

      Excellent benefits. 50% 401k match up to federal limit, so if you contribute 18k LinkedIn will put in 9k with 100% vested immediately. 100% of all medical, dental, vision, etc. premiums covered by LinkedIn. Free breakfast and lunch every day and dinner 4 days a week. $2000 a year to use for child care, pet care, personal trainer, massages, tennis lessons, etc. Lots of smart people.

      Cons

      The development tools can be pretty terrible. The leadership for the Tools Engineering org is pretty bad. Many days have been wasted fiddling with some of the development tools. There is also an unhealthy obsession with building things from scratch as opposed to just using the open source versions. There are some things that are being built that we clearly do not have expertise in and which have excellent open source versions.
