Vantaggi
The usual tech company perks, world class products, no real competition, sharp senior leadership/exec team. If your dream is to be a big company that is changing the world, this is the place to be. You can have a life outside of LinkedIn, which is great. It's also not as cult-like compared to places like the big G, which is a huge plus if you're a normal person. LinkedIn changed my life. Depending on where you are in your career and what you want, this may or may not happen to you as well.
Svantaggi
Open, honest and constructive is the LinkedIn way...unless you actually suggest things might not be that great or that there are problems. If you do, you'll find yourself labeled as "negative" and a "complainer." So much for feedback being a gift. There is very little upward mobility in Talent Solutions these days. Great opportunity for those starting out in sales, but If you're more experienced, you'll run out of options quickly. Middle management is the weakest link. Another review mentioned "they wouldn't be qualified to run a McDonald's" - while that's pretty harsh, I'm not going to say that isn't far from the truth. Front line managers are great at parroting back the company line on issues, collecting your forecast, and asking "how can I help?" - with a few exceptions, very little value was ever added by a front line manager. Some bizarre people decisions over the past couple years. Tons of "are you serious" moments on the floor with the large number of political promotions. Relationships Matter.
