Pros

Culture, culture, culture- fantastic. Ability to make an impact. Ability to give input. Ability to be recognized for good work. Ability to work with really smart, good people. Healthy debate and disagreements. Opportunity to change your career/do new things. Big ideas are good and are rewarded. Hyper-growth means fun scaling challenges.

Cons

The only con is the breakneck pace which lends itself to folks not being resourced sometimes. However, I think this is the cost of doing business at breakneck speed and keeping up (blowing away the competition). I will say there's a good deal of support for new initiatives and if/when people become over-burdened, new resources can be added.

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.
