Questions
There were a couple of questions about call() and apply() in one of the phone interviews that tripped me up a bit, but the interviewer was nice about it and helped me through. Just learn how JavaScript works natively, and you'll be fine.

LinkedIn Work Experiences
- 5.0Great culture, generous compensation, admirable leadership, and managementWeb Developer • Current EmployeeMountain View, California, United StatesNovember 11, 2013Pros: Some pros include the cooperative, encouraging, and ennobling culture. Compensation is fair to generous, complemented by many great perks, such as free meals, well-stocked break rooms, and a nice workout facility. Quality leadership and management come from managers and officers who value employees and strive to help them be successful.Cons: The rapidness of LinkedIn's growth has not been without its pains. I believe the majority of the employee population has less than two years of experience with the company. Some processes have scaled better than others.
