Pros

LinkedIn has an amazing overall global culture with some great benefits. -Catered breakfast & lunch -Healthcare -1 Day per month for employee and community engagement -In office gym -Strong mission and vision Unfortunately these benefits are now table stakes within Saas companies and are not enough to make up for the cons.

Cons

-Lack of opportunity for growth within the CSM team (consistently hiring external and not promoting within) -Below average compensation that lead great employees to leave -No diversity across sales - especially LTS. The employees do not represent the customer base -Favouritism across the team -Concerning internal politics (Management reputation is a higher priority than their team and morale) -Lack of support and coaching from middle management -Overwhelming workloads

Pros

- WLB - family oriented people - nice and smart colleagues - food and perks

Cons

- management cares more about social activities than projects and employees. it seems important to make sure the team looks united from the surface (to their upper management) - upper management spent way too much time on “relationship maters”, encouraging employees to do the same. People who actually work hard will not be rewarded if they do not socialize often, and involve in these events. - manager’s technical knowledge is ridiculously limited. - employees suck up to managers because of how much power they have.

Pros

- Great Product, market leaders, no real competitors - Great Company investment into employees well-being - Lovely company perks (fun office space, gym, lunches etc.)

Cons

- Hypocritical Management - Stands by one thing in public as part of their principals/values but doesn't apply it in practice. - The quiet ones who just stay in their box are rewarded/promoted whereas the ones who have an opinion to try to help drive excellence for the company and clients are penalised. You can't have an opinion in this company and actually it's frowned on/not welcome or rewarded. - Sales Operations runs the show here and is very disconnected to the realities of the sale/market. I've never seen Sales have such little influence. - Back end systems are like something out of the middle ages. Takes an hour to generate a contract - Very clique-y - leadership make decisions like it's a popularity contest, politics is huge here
