-While innovation is wonderful, you can't forget about the products that got you to where you are. I don't feel that resources were adequately aligned to older product lines in the talent solutions space. Constant site outages and product issues with Recruiter and Jobs.
-Quotas are ridiculously high and difficult to hit especially in the talent solutions space. There are HUNDREDS of competitors and though LinkedIn has a great product, the competition is gaining traction. This should be accounted for in quotas. Be prepared to sell against a lot of companies and to lose budget to newcomers like ZipRecruiter/Muse.
-You will maintain the same book of accounts which is great for building relationships with customers however your quotas will still rise even if your book is tapped.
-There is no work life balance, too many product trainings, middle management is wishy washy and there is little to no consistency across the board with performance standards.
-Tenured upper management resigned consistently the last few months I worked there which to me was concerning. There was no room for them to grow and the culture changed from what it once was.
-Lots of red tape since being acquired by Microsoft but thats to be expected.
