Pros

Good ambiance, good brand

Cons

If I have to mention the downside of working in linkedin thn this page wont be enough. They treat contractors as slaves and in a very disrespectful way. Moreover, they fire pregnant ladies as preganant ladies tend to take maternity leaves and they replace her by hiring someone for lesser salary. Some of the managers in Content Review team and trust and safety treats women in a very disrespectful way. They micromanage them to a great extent where women cry on duty because of the illtreatment. An organization of such a stature is doing such things and there is no one to hear the story of the contractors who work day and night because they are made to work so. Contractors are asked to do night shift without giving transport. At night they switch off the AC and nothing is available except water. Contractors suffer a lot and when they want to discuss about their issues they are fired immediately. It is a trauma for every contractor who work there. The contigent HR is so rude that she keeps threatening people. The managers of trust and safety treats you in very unprofessional way and they don't spare even women who are much experienced in the team.

Pros

Posh Cafeteria and good food a lot of social events great value in the resume good pay (in the range of 60 to 70% of FANG compensation)

Cons

low caliber managers in all levels. (Except the very top level) Managers have more authority and power that is being misused. Engineers are forced to pay attention to pleasing managers instead of focusing on technology and new products. HR is always one sided with managers. Performance reviews are not questionable and are not really based on one's performance. you need to be in the close circle of management in order to get recognized.

Pros

Great pay, good benefits, free food, unlimited time off, good work hours, talented employees are some of the biggest pros at Linked. Other pros include a good CEO & SVP level leaders, a compelling vision, strong culture and values, and monthly InDays.

Cons

LSMS marketing "leadership" has had 0 impact on the business and consistently exhibits poor judgement, unfounded arrogance and gross incompetence. Other cons include persistent micromanagement, uninspiring and boring work, a lack of innovation, overly entitled employees, LSS should be renamed LinkedIn Spamming Solutions
