Vantaggi

Revolutionary product, great office space, very very diversity-minded

Svantaggi

A lot of management should've left the company when it grew from a start-up to a corporation. Their lack of experience shows and is only compounded by high school-like bonding/favoritism of individuals off their teams. Be ready to join many pointless happy hours to become well-liked by your manager... or suffer being handed a bad territory of accounts. If you're an experienced salesperson, it may not be the best company. The company is product-centric, not sales and service-centric. Means you will spend a lot of time working around the nuances of administrative tasks like billing issues, contract creation, customer service (virtually nonexistent Customer Success team), navigating the outdated CRM process, creating client presentation collateral (subpar product marketing team), broken dashboards, etc. The best way to be successful is get a lucky account/territory that is bound to grow a lot or simply put your head down and take ownership to work through all the sales productivity gaps. Important to note that there is a "sales productivity" team, but nobody knows what they do and there is zero way for the sales organization to provide feedback to help improve the very apparent issues. Overall, if you want to have flashy Instagram posts and free beer on Thursdays, LinkedIn is an amazing place to work. If you're a salesperson seeking a fulfilling, sustainable career, it's best to search elsewhere.

Vantaggi

Amazing perks and nice people. Perks: I was able to purchase new luggage with the help of some internal points for my performance. Unfortunately, I have not traveled since I left the company with the luggage. Travel also changed after I took the job and I was a global traveler.

Svantaggi

I ended up quitting my job to look for a new job in 2024. The exit from the company was extremely poorly managed by my manager and the HR staff. I had a very difficult time networking after I left the job which is funny given that it is a social networking platform. I felt like there was still a presence from the company even after joining She Runs It, a third-party networking platform for women. I expected more from LinkedIn during my departure. I was unaware what impact working at this company could have on my career. They should really help their employees with their next role and applying as a lot of the applications occur on the platform. There was only an opportunity to interview and reach out to people that worked for LinkedIn at B2B, even though I have B2C experience. AI has really complicated the process as well with writing etc. since leaving.
