Pros

- Competitive pay (for recruiters) - Great culture. This starts with great transparency from almost every level. Management gives us opportunities to create impact and make a name for ourselves constantly. - There are tons of benefits and employee groups that really show a focus on employees well being. - Colleagues are great people who work hard, and will help you. - Lots of holidays, including the week between Xmas and new year, and week of July 4th. - A great focus on diversity that has paid off - diverse group of people who work here - Great product. - A mission that's easy to get behind, and really drives most of the decisions it would seem.

Cons

-We are heavily over worked in recruiting. This is very common nowadays across most companies I am sure, but it can be a weight when you feel like you didn't accomplish nearly enough after a 10 hour day. This also leads to (at least myself) feeling reluctant to take any vacation time. - Technology in recruiting. The tools we have amount to not much more than Excel and LI Recruiter. There are lots of areas where recruiting could be more efficient but there are missed opportunities because of poor systems.

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.
