      Pros

      LinkedIn has a very compelling mission objective. Thanks to their ideals they often bring in great people who likewise demonstrate caring. LinkedIn definitely believes in training and often times will allow you greater resources to improve. LinkedIn does a hell of a job of getting people new to the company really excited and mobilizing these people to speak their praises. (Note how long most of the glowing review have worked at LinkedIn). They best way to describe LinkedIn's culture: "We are a bunch of workaholics who like alcohol."

      Cons

      Bad manager's.- Thanks to LinkedIn's hypergrowth we have promoted a lot of new managers who are just candidly bad. Switching of standards- I believe this orientates its self around bad manager's many times, they will say one thing and measure by a different standard then what was communicated. Leading to complications, also i have witness managers stop their team members from being promoted, when a hiring manager wanted said teammate. Lastly, the hiring experience at LinkedIn could definitely be improved.

      Where Experience Meets Action

      Senior data scientist

      Pros

      Each team is designed as a startup of around 40 people. Ie, each team is self contained with an organization of data, engineering, designers, and product, everyone knows everyone, actions are swift, teams are focused. If you live in south bay - then one of the best work/life balances around. Very little "cruft." The chefs cook like they are being reviewed by Michelin guide everyday!

      Cons

      No San Francisco office for technical positions. Not much flexibility around work from home days for SF employees.
