Pros

Amazing benefits and great pay.

Cons

Significant gap between where they are and where they need to go. A preference for "getting shXt done" (company value) over strategic thinking and following good business plans. In the past year, LinkedIn made a concerted effort to bring in more seasoned professionals to address the process and systems gaps. The culture doesn't embrace the processes required to mature and move to the next level of strategic and operational sophistication. The culture is locked into the move fast and get shXt done approach despite it being a close to 10000 person company, which causes endless re-work.

Pros

Empowered to take intelligent risks, all with the strong support of leadership. People are awesome, perks are unbelievable (esp. with new vacation policy... i.e. 2 weeks of shutdown and unlimited vacation). I feel very challenged, but very supported, which is a great place to be.

Cons

We tend to "level down". At another company my title would be Director, or at least SMR, but here I'm a manager. This makes no sense to me from a recruiting perspective, and somewhat undermines credibility externally in my role.

Pros

Very good perks and salary, nice office environment and a highly transparent company. Cool product

Cons

A lot of talk about being top 1%, but very many people did not seem to be focused on the business. Underperformance was widely accepted. Also, you need to fit in to there culture, there is very little room for the individual, if you not fit the norm of the young , hip employee that love LinkedIn.
