Pros

Great Food, Health Insurance OK,

Cons

Everything, one of the worst companies I have ever worked for. The employees are some of the worst I have ever had to deal with. They are arrogant, self-centered and believe the world owes them everything. Jeff is like a sheep herder and everyone just follows along. The company all hands is like the Jim Jones just getting everyone to drink the cool-aid. Management is a joke and most directors don't know what they are doing or even how to do their own jobs. The work environment is great if you like to sit next to kids shooting nerf guns all day and more worried about the next party than doing their work. Project managers are a JOKE!!!!! If you like to say to your mangers that they are the greatest then you get promoted. Almost half the employees are just not needed but since so many barely work they just hire and hire to make up. Management supports this child like environment as it gives the the feeling of power and doing good. sad thing is they foster an environment of hate and discontent among the real workers. Turn-over is very high even at top management levels. This is a very political in its daily culture. You either are a complete yes person are you go no-where very fast. They have no clue on how to run a company that is professional or how to spend wisely. This is also a very wasteful company.

Pros

It used to be a great company, where we had to deal with fascinating search and analytics challenges. After IPO lots of talented engineers and managers has left, making the whole environment much worse

Cons

My manager asked me to notify them in advance if I would intend to leave. I gave a 6 weeks notice and asked them if I could use a part of that time for the parental leave. They terminated my employment immediately. The manager told me the reason of the early exit was that I'm going to work for their major competitor. It seems some people had brought Yahoo's worst practices to LinkedIn. Now I'm feeling stupid of giving an early notice
