Pros

Benefits, brand, WFH option, really try to have the perception of a great culture at the surface,

Cons

You definitely have to drink the koolaide and play the political game like no other. Overloaded with admin tasks that 90% of the time ends up falling under the sales rep. You don’t really have a manager to help through this, you are your own lawyer within the company. They preach diversity and inclusion but really you have to fit into their box of leverage and leadership and not thrive at being your own identity. It’s tasks to check the box in leadership and leverage that reps crawl over each other to get these marks to get to their next play. Org structure that is going on is a nightmare .. it sounds wonderful but LI did not operationally prepare for this with and now dumping 5x’s the responsibility with half the support to make you successful.

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.
