      Great culture

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There's a positive, inspirational culture and you work with some amazing people. Creativity is encouraged, and you can move around a lot. There isn't a hierarchical feeling. People are open to new ideas and dialogue.

      Cons

      It's hard to get a sense of strategic direction from Product leaders. It can be challenging to collaborate across product teams. People who like a lot of structure and certainty are likely to be unhappy here.

      Great Company Culture, Huge Growth Potential, Needs Good Middle Managers

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Great company culture focused on continuous innovation * Smart, dedicated and motivated employees * Open transparent executive team * Employee friendly

      Cons

      * For a hyper growth company, LinkedIn is surprisingly not investing enough in hiring / grooming middle managers. At times, it feels that the place works in spite of itself * Company is not doing enough to grow and promote people from within * Poor communication & coordination across different team with signs of creeping politics

      Overall, an awesome company (especially if you are early on in your career)

      Pros

      Great benefits for a large, public company...FREE FOOD...you will be surrounded by super-driven peers, and led by forward thinking and highly capable management.

      Cons

      LinkedIn does solve a real need/problem out there (how to attract, recruit the best talent AND how to best target your audience to market/sell) ....and LinkedIn is leaps and bounds ahead of any "competitor" (though there is really no apples-to-apples comparison), but it runs into the challenge of retaining their top sales people because of how "straight-forward" the sale is relative to other tech-sales roles.
