Pros

Was amazing up until about Jan 2023. Culture was off the charts. Everyone is super nice, caring and collaborative. Employees want to see each other win. It's not just about individual achievement. WLB is pretty good.

Cons

Around Jan 2023, it started shifting, primarily due to the waves of layoffs that have been hitting since then. The layoffs have taken a huge toll on the morale at the company, and the energy has shifted to be one that's more paranoid, less of a feeling of security (which is never conducive to the highest levels of productivity so it's a vicious cycle). LI has also back peddled on their remote work policy. For the past couple years they touted how much they trusted their employees, that research is showing how productivity is just as strong for remote workers, and that everyone could choose where they wanted to work from. Now they're forcing everyone to be in the office several days per week - despite the research showing productivity is just as high at home.

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.
