Pros

There are still a significant amount of good and caring people who genuinely want you to succeed, but they are on the decline. Increasingly, those who thrive in a toxic, 'cut-throat' environment are becoming more prominent.

Cons

Over the past nine months, a cultural revolution has occurred.

Those who built the great culture that LinkedIn is known for are being replaced by those who favor traditional corporate practices.

Transparency and true compassion have diminished in favor of carefully choreographed events and heavy use of corporate jargon.

Innovation feels stalled, and the strategy appears to be imitate rather than lead.

Advice to Management

A rigid corporate regime stifles creativity, motivation, and morale. We need to retain the culture that attracted top talent who are not a-holes. We need an inspirational, innovative, compassionate leader committed to full transparency and the embrace of intelligent risk.
