LinkedIn reviews

- Tier 2/3 people (few to no "A" players) - Poor executive leadership (takes no accountability, unrealistic expectations, constantly chasing Facebook + shiny objects) - Poor management. Most managers are Tier 2/3 from other companies, LinkedIn is almost no one's 'first choice' so it shows in the management - Company changed over the years. It is now very metrics oriented because the product is plateauing. That's why there are constantly layoffs; they need to continue profitability and squeezing. The glory days are over. It was a great company when Jeff Weiner was at the helm, and since then, has really gone down hill. Tread carefully. - Technology is abysmal. Old stacks and frameworks. Things that should take hours or days take weeks or months. And, all the "Ai" and novel things they are trying, are completely laughable "under the hood". Lot of manual/editorial curation...

LinkedIn likes to show that they are the "thought leader" for employers, but they don't practice what they preach. When I was brought on as an FTE, I was assigned to a leader that used blame and back-stabbing as her leadership MO, and it was really toxic and made my mental health go into the gutter. I was fired for "performance reasons" (which, I later learned that leaders were told to push out "low-performers" to avoid any publicity of layoffs) at the exact same time that I was pushing for ADA accommodations for my mental health. Like, so many levels of crappy management behavior. And these leaders were held up as exemplary leaders in the department, which was so disappointing to see.
