Pros

This used to be an amazing company to work for - great people, great perks (food, gym, etc), great career growth, and an amazing leadership team that 99% of the company had full faith in and support for

Cons

With the recent transition from Jeff to Ryan, things have really taken a turn for the worst. Ryan seems to be all talk and no action. Commit to diversity & inclusion is questionable. The handling of the recent layoffs was preposterous - cryptic emails at midnight, unpersonal zoom calls. Fine if you're going to lay people off - but don't appear to be compassionate or speak about being compassionate and empathetic when you're laying off 1,000 people and claim that it has nothing to do with COVID. Really miss Jeff, this company took a turn for the worst when he left unfortunately, and it seems like things will never be the same. Know that when you work here, you're essentially working for MSFT, even though LinkedIn will go out of its way to say that they're a very different company.

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.
