Pros

Culture of this company is amazing. Jeff Weiner has been able to grow a strong culture and values even at 9000+ employees. Benefits are better than even some of the best companies in the valley. Overall mission of creating economic opportunity is meaningful and you feel connected.

Cons

The culture is very young (millennial). There is another review out there telling Gen Xers and baby boomers to stay away and it's unfortunate that the review is very accurate. They promote work life balance well but if you are older and have different outside of work challenges you may find yourself alone. The biggest non-work problems I heard were "where to stay for Coachella?" or "have you eaten at xxxx in the City?" or "I didn't like the food today" Again - great place to work IF you fit in.

Pros

Amazing perks and nice people. Perks: I was able to purchase new luggage with the help of some internal points for my performance. Unfortunately, I have not traveled since I left the company with the luggage. Travel also changed after I took the job and I was a global traveler.

Cons

I ended up quitting my job to look for a new job in 2024. The exit from the company was extremely poorly managed by my manager and the HR staff. I had a very difficult time networking after I left the job which is funny given that it is a social networking platform. I felt like there was still a presence from the company even after joining She Runs It, a third-party networking platform for women. I expected more from LinkedIn during my departure. I was unaware what impact working at this company could have on my career. They should really help their employees with their next role and applying as a lot of the applications occur on the platform. There was only an opportunity to interview and reach out to people that worked for LinkedIn at B2B, even though I have B2C experience. AI has really complicated the process as well with writing etc. since leaving.
