Pluspunten

The stock options are going to be worth something, so it's worth coming if you can negotiate a large grant. The hours are pretty good, I leave the office by 6pm so it's not a bad place if you mind your own business and are satisfied collecting a paycheck and vesting. There are all the usual perks like free food. Hackdays happen every month.

Minpunten

It's a highly political environment where the people who get ahead are those who promote themselves the most. The management pretends like everything is hunky dory, but the culture isn't the greatest and morale is low. It's a product-driven company where engineers aren't recognized and don't get much respect. Having said that, we keep growing and making money, so something is definitely going right.

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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.
