LinkedIn reviews

The downside of working at LinkedIn is that I quite literally have to sacrifice my work/life balance and sanity for the perks mentioned above. -Onboarding did not prepare me at all to work at LinkedIn or my role -Very little training for new hires. You are thrown in and expected to just figure it out. -Poor communication across teams in multiple offices -Long hours (although they will blame it on your lack of time management) -My particular team is incredibly difficult as a working parent -DTO is nice but missing days does nothing but hurt you -Even when I am not working, I'm constantly stressed about work -Everyone made a big deal about InDays when I started as a day that you can take off and focus on the theme of the month but my team does not participate. -My role is more of a sales position than a customer success position -Doesn't feel like there are many opportunities in the Chicago office to grow The culture on my team is very different than what I have heard at large at LinkedIn, which is unfortunate, as I feel like I have a very different perception of the company. From my first week of training, I felt that coming here was a mistake because I was forgotten about and not prepared to do my job. I left a very enjoyable job that did not pay as well to come to LinkedIn and it feels like I have given up my peace of mind for more money. Not a great feeling.

Some management decisions are made without employees in mind and there are times when - because of technology choices and miscommunication between engineers and product/design - that we end up wasting time and losing efficiency
