I believed in the mission and values of Linkedin. They made it clear that the feeling was not mutual. - Recruiter LinkedIn Employee Review

Pros

The offices are beautiful. Food is delicious. Benefits are impressive.

Cons

Management is clueless. They act as if they know what they are doing but only do what Microsoft directs them to do. The mission around equality and diversity and inclusion is a farce. The toxic positivity is disturbing. Linkedin laid off 65% of the recruiting organization in one day. During the 15 minute meeting when the recruiters were notified the badges of employees were deactivated. They had to be escorted around campus with security. No Directors or Senior Directors in recruiting were impacted by the layoffs. I would never trust the leaders of Linkedin.

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.
