Pros

Our leaders are transformational. Our employees are inspirational. The best reasons to work at LinkedIn lies beyond the 'cool factor', of which there are many, and extends to our vision to create economic opportunity for every professional in the world. LinkedIn is an extraordinary environment enabling employees to exercise their true talent and pave the way in changing the world of work. We have only scratched the surface through professional networking - our greater impact lies in the power of fractal energy on a global scale...cultivating jobs, creating opportunity, making the world a greater place.

Cons

Patience is a virtue that must be realized by employees and leaders. When an organization evolves as rapidly as LinkedIn, there is a kaleidoscope brought about by previous experiences and current expectations. Creating the much needed infrastructure is happening. This platform will take us to the next level but we must exercise a degree of patience. Rome wasn't built in a day. LinkedIn is rapidly evolving but not as quick as the blink of an eye - that too would be a mistake...one minute we are there, the next minute we are not. Balance and patience my friends.

Pros

-Control your schedule -Office environment is great -Teammates are nice and helpful

Cons

-Customer Success metrics lack clear ownership and actionable levers. Many CSMs do not have direct control over the outcomes they are measured against, and success narratives are often based on isolated or non-replicable examples rather than scalable processes. -Microsoft’s increased influence over LinkedIn has led to tighter promotion structures and more limited compensation growth pathways. -Product value within the LTS portfolio is inconsistent. LinkedIn Learning struggles with perceived differentiation and impact, while Recruiter’s market position relies heavily on legacy dominance rather than clear ongoing innovation or customer value expansion. -Metric design and performance management frameworks were created without a strong operational understanding of the CSM role, resulting in accountability for outcomes that CSMs cannot directly influence. -While many CSMs share these concerns, there is limited upward feedback or structured challenge to leadership regarding metric design and role effectiveness, which limits opportunities for meaningful reform. They prefer to lick the boots of senior leaders rather than tell AV and his team how they actually feel and see progress to better, more impactful metrics. For individuals who are comfortable with high call volumes (10+ customer interactions per week) and performance metrics that are influenced significantly by external factors rather than direct role ownership, LinkedIn LTS Customer Success can be a suitable environment.
