Pros

Food is great, work life balance can be good depending on your role and boss.

Cons

- "culture" one of the words you'll hear most while working at LinkedIn is collaboration. However, sales targets are very high and individual so, naturally, does not foster collaboration but they will force you to collaborate by taking on projects that move you away from your core role. - Too many social events and not very parent friendly as they all occur after work. - Too many internal initiatives that take time off your day to day and quite useless in terms of the outcome but you have to take part if you want to get promoted. - LMS line of business is FULL of politics and only Irish people get promoted to management. - Many mediocre middle managers with a very infantile management style. - You need to suck up to all managers in the floor otherwise one or 2 may mess up your performance review (they call it callibration) even when you overachieve in results. - If you want to focus mostly or solely on your job, this may not be the place for you.

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.
