Pros

Empowered to take intelligent risks, all with the strong support of leadership. People are awesome, perks are unbelievable (esp. with new vacation policy... i.e. 2 weeks of shutdown and unlimited vacation). I feel very challenged, but very supported, which is a great place to be.

Cons

We tend to "level down". At another company my title would be Director, or at least SMR, but here I'm a manager. This makes no sense to me from a recruiting perspective, and somewhat undermines credibility externally in my role.

Pros

LinkedIn is all about their emloyees. As an expert in the global workforce, they make every effort to ensure that they are THE employer to be!

Cons

LinkedIn inspires. Every employee, every day, makes you want to be the best you can at your job. Without making sure you take a breather every once in a while, it could consume you.

Pros

- Great C-level executives and their directs. Have great visions & values and they actually practice them. - Free lunch, snacks, drinks, etc in the California office locations - regular company activities to promote team building. - Very open to making opportunities for yourself - your manager won't help you, but if you can make the connections yourself, do it!

Cons

- Poor management and director level leadership - Mismatch between compensation and work expectations between groups - Regularly hires managers externally than promoting ready and eager analysts from within due to over-valuation of an MBA and management consulting experience from the big three (Bain, BCG, McKinsey) despite them NOT being that bright or having people management experience
