Pros

DTO but that’s going away

Cons

The company is struggling big time in terms of finding ways to be innovative and stay relevant as the product is not as instrumental to one’s work as some might make it seem. People are tired and burnt out, but because the market is so bad everyone sits there and stays because of the fear there’s nowhere else to go. It has become a very metric based organization with not a lot of thought from leadership on the matrix even make sense organization is focused on. How much they can squeeze the juice out of the lemon at the sake of the employees well-being

Pros

Pros: - high pay - great office buildings - great food and amenities - overall decent people and decent culture

Cons

- Tier 2/3 people (few to no "A" players) - Poor executive leadership (takes no accountability, unrealistic expectations, constantly chasing Facebook + shiny objects) - Poor management. Most managers are Tier 2/3 from other companies, LinkedIn is almost no one's 'first choice' so it shows in the management - Company changed over the years. It is now very metrics oriented because the product is plateauing. That's why there are constantly layoffs; they need to continue profitability and squeezing. The glory days are over. It was a great company when Jeff Weiner was at the helm, and since then, has really gone down hill. Tread carefully. - Technology is abysmal. Old stacks and frameworks. Things that should take hours or days take weeks or months. And, all the "Ai" and novel things they are trying, are completely laughable "under the hood". Lot of manual/editorial curation...
