Pros

Great benefits, especially healthcare High performing environment with great people

Cons

LinkedIn has many leaders who have been with the company for 5-15 years and are more interested in protecting their job and freedom than moving the business forward. There is a lot of resistance to change and it's starting to show in our numbers. Our tech is becoming outdated and there is a false sense of security behind the company brand. More importantly, frontline managers do not know how to lead, and their solution for everything is micro-management disguised behind a "performance management culture." Due to the high amount of turnover, including long tenured high performing reps, books of business have doubled, making it impossible to service our clients. Our comp plan was slashed, putting OTE way under market. Our quotas increased because of an AI release that never happened, mind you we are a Micrsoft company. Our employee voice survey results have consistently declined, and it's clear that there is no interest in improving our culture, celebrating wins, or improving.

Pros

LinkedIn has a strong engineering culture, smart and supportive teammates, and meaningful product impact at a large scale. I have had opportunities to work on complex systems, collaborate with experienced engineers, and learn from cross-functional partners across product, design, data, and infrastructure. The benefits, flexibility, and internal learning resources are also strong.

Cons

Because the organization is large, decision-making can sometimes be slow, and priorities may shift before projects fully mature. Promotion expectations can feel different across teams, and the number of meetings can make it harder to protect deep-focus engineering time. Cross-team ownership is not always as clear as it could be.
