Pros

Come to work feeling challenged; always having communication with my own manager about career growth and taking on new projects -Health insurance premiums paid for 100% -401K match 50% of your contribution up to IRS limit with no vesting schedule -Microsoft RSUs -Week off Fourth of July and End of Year in addition to time-off -$2,000 /year wellness benefit - 8 employee resource groups - President's Club in Bali - Quarterly Employee Voice Survey to communicate with management List goes on... If you put in the time and work hard you will be rewarded for your contributions, most manager positions are filled internally

Cons

LinkedIn doesn't pay the best compared to our competitors. Candidates do not take our offers because our salaries are the highest. They join us for our culture and values. If you're driven by a company that wants to create economic opportunity for every member of the global workforce, and a company that has a lot of philanthropic motivations, this is the company for you. LinkedIn Lifers embrace this culture and stay for the long haul.

Pros

LinkedIn has a strong engineering culture, smart and supportive teammates, and meaningful product impact at a large scale. I have had opportunities to work on complex systems, collaborate with experienced engineers, and learn from cross-functional partners across product, design, data, and infrastructure. The benefits, flexibility, and internal learning resources are also strong.

Cons

Because the organization is large, decision-making can sometimes be slow, and priorities may shift before projects fully mature. Promotion expectations can feel different across teams, and the number of meetings can make it harder to protect deep-focus engineering time. Cross-team ownership is not always as clear as it could be.
