Strong perks but low compassion

Pros

When Jeff was there, I saw a lot of potential and true compassion for the employees. It's hard to do with such a huge company, but it was felt. The company also offers incredible compensation and amazing perks!

Cons

The way Ryan and the C-suite handled the diversity issues was disgusting. All talk, no action. Very fake. Listen to your very small pool of diverse employees... they want opportunity equally and equitably, not just because they are from a minority group. They/we deserve that. Leadership made it uncomfortable for all. Additionally, the lack of compassion from the c-suite and senior leadership regarding the layoffs was honestly quite shocking. It was inevitable and understandable that it happened, but Jeff would have never allowed it to be done the way it was. Why did we all wake up to a middle of the night email and a post on LinkedIn to the public from our CEO? You respect our employees but not enough to handle it inernally first. Do better. And then to share that it was not based on performance. So tell me... what was it based on? Favoritism by the Director level... that is it. In a nutshell... this company is fake. If all you care about is comp and benefits, this is the place for you. But they do not practice their values authentically.

Pros

- Food (pre-covid) was great - Good fitness classes - Some great people working at LinkedIn

Cons

- Zero coaching provided in 8 months of role - Competitive: Managers constantly comparing each other and comparing reps to each other - Role eliminated despite hitting every KPI/Target since starting - SD/LinkedIn is very political in nature - promotions can depend on whether senior management likes you/know you - Short term focus: Hit targets at whatever the cost - Very little recognition for work well done

Pros

Healthcare benefits, 50% matching 401K, free food, gym

Cons

Very clique like, everyone may smile but it is disingenuous. You are either popular and accepted, or you function alone. Incredibly isolationing. Marginalized.
