Pros

Food, Cab, Annual Sales Kick-Off in Vegas (Last I heard, its discontinued), Hybrid Work, Flexi Hours It's best to join recruitment business arm of LinkedIn, avoid Sales Solutions business. Marketing solutions is also doing good, however a bit impacted due to reduced marketing spends by organizations for the moment.

Cons

Dying culture, Low Salaries, Low annual appraisals, No professional growth / Promotions. Difference in how different leaders drive culture within the company. Recruitment business is the largest of all with still good hold on the LinkedIn culture & high visibility. LinkedIn still probably talks & invests more in this business segment than in any other. Sales Solutions is the smallest and is quite struggling business to be in, also it has no culture. Weak leadership with no stance, visibility, culture or values. Stay away from it. No career growth opportunities, there are people who are in same role for years (5-10 years) without growth in their role. Once used to be a dream organization to be in, now just another company.

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.
