Don't believe the hype

Pros

Ample opportunities to grow within the organisation if you are ambitious

Cons

Having the feeling you should feel fortunate to work for LinkedIn. Sometimes too cultish, and what you were sold at induction wasn't what you got when returning to work at your respective office. Sold a great work/life balance; certainly didn't get it.

Pros

Like most employees I do love working with LinkedIn, but it saddens us to watch the organisation's cultural values of integrity and flat hierarchy succumb to internal politics. A prime example is the recent flood of over-enthusiastic reviews here on Glassdoor, all posted within the space of a few days, following some very negative reviews just before the month of October. Convenient... When CEO Jeff Weiner, highly regarded by all employees, visited the offices, the entire building was repainted, cleaned and employees were told not to approach him personally and any questions were vetted beforehand. Working at LinkedIn is exciting and challenging, but you will be putting in the hours. Your salary won't reflect your skills, only which territory you happen to be stuck with. This sadly cost us some valuable team members. Out of a team of exceptional, stellar sales people, perhaps 10% can expect to hit annual target. There are some fantastic perks, like free food, entertainment etc, and you are almost guaranteed a great career post LinkedIn, but we'd love to see some changes put in place soon.

Cons

Work-life balance, compensation good but not fairly distributed, politics, politics, politics.
