Pros

Like most employees I do love working with LinkedIn, but it saddens us to watch the organisation's cultural values of integrity and flat hierarchy succumb to internal politics. A prime example is the recent flood of over-enthusiastic reviews here on Glassdoor, all posted within the space of a few days, following some very negative reviews just before the month of October. Convenient... When CEO Jeff Weiner, highly regarded by all employees, visited the offices, the entire building was repainted, cleaned and employees were told not to approach him personally and any questions were vetted beforehand. Working at LinkedIn is exciting and challenging, but you will be putting in the hours. Your salary won't reflect your skills, only which territory you happen to be stuck with. This sadly cost us some valuable team members. Out of a team of exceptional, stellar sales people, perhaps 10% can expect to hit annual target. There are some fantastic perks, like free food, entertainment etc, and you are almost guaranteed a great career post LinkedIn, but we'd love to see some changes put in place soon.

Cons

Work-life balance, compensation good but not fairly distributed, politics, politics, politics.

Pros

Everyone here genuinely loves what they do, believes in the products, and has a drive to make the company succeed. Training is great, teamwork is evident while also competitive, and the overall culture makes you want to come to work. Managers actively look to help the individual team members grow and succeed, and executive leadership is very humble. For a huge company, you feel very "at home."

Cons

Unfortunately because of how well-known the brand is, it seems everyone thinks you can answer every LinkedIn concern or question they have! Honestly, if this is the worst part about the job, it speaks to how easy it is to enjoy!
