Pros

Awesome company, but the cultural of LinkedIn is not for everyone -- just like any company . They look for innovative people who are not just waiting for their next step, but creating it. The ability to transform your career and passions to a job you love, is incredible. I love having a direct influence on my career path. There isn't a right or wrong way to move in the direction you want to go with LinkedIn. It isn't a ladder you are trying to move up. It is a staircase with many floors. You choose where you want to go.

Cons

Some employees don't get it. You influence your path and management is their to guide you and support you, but not hold your hand.

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.
