Pros

First Line managers are great Culture amazing, people are so nice! Food for free for breakfast and meals. Employee Stock Purchase Plan with Microsoft great. Work life balance is great, only pressure you got is the one in your head, it won't come from your manager.

Cons

Quota very difficult to reach, 70% don't reach it. + You get only 20% of your commission salary when reaching 80% of quota. If you succeed doing last 20% you get 80% of your commissions. Meaning people don't get paid at all as quotas are very difficult to reach. Direction objectives are misaligned with reps objectives, so we don't have the same interests. Love this company but really they should realign a lot of things.

Pros

LinkedIn has a strong engineering culture, smart and supportive teammates, and meaningful product impact at a large scale. I have had opportunities to work on complex systems, collaborate with experienced engineers, and learn from cross-functional partners across product, design, data, and infrastructure. The benefits, flexibility, and internal learning resources are also strong.

Cons

Because the organization is large, decision-making can sometimes be slow, and priorities may shift before projects fully mature. Promotion expectations can feel different across teams, and the number of meetings can make it harder to protect deep-focus engineering time. Cross-team ownership is not always as clear as it could be.
