Pros
As a global tech company, it has some great benefits like health care.
Cons
I'll start by saying not all eggs are bad, there are some good folks in amongst the weeds. However, I have never worked in an environment that is so toxic among managers and leaders on such a consistent basis that eventually, you begin to believe that you are the problem. You either conform to their way of thinking or you fall into their 'not a culture-fit' category. The sheer fact that this phrase is mentioned on such a regular basis tells you it's more of a cult LinkedIn has than a culture. A lot of senior leadership have climbed the ladder within the company and as such, they have severe impostor syndrome where they crave to be right all the time and view peers as competitors. I've worked for companies that celebrate employee suggestions to help the company get ahead of the competition but as LinkedIn has no real competitors, that element is missing as LinkedIn. Instead leaders view their peers & colleagues as competitors & threats to their role so instead of having a truly collaborative environment, you end up with this horribly toxic culture where everyone is out for themselves and that just eats away at any confidence you have. The most shocking part about all of this is, that no matter how many managers & leaders submit their internal feedback about this horrible culture, nothing, and I mean nothing is done about it. I've found out the hard way that speaking out about the company culture in a non-positive way is not welcomed at all levels, including the global HR level. My biggest regret is staying with LinkedIn for as long as I did and it's only now a year after leaving the company, I realize just how terrible LinkedIn was to work for.If you are a leader thinking about joining LinkedIn's global customer organization team (GCO), do yourself a favour and explore other options and don't get sucked in with the perks and benefits. It should be illegal to sell such a positive culture to potential candidates when in fact it's the opposite.
