Pros

Working for LinkedIn has been an awesome experience.

Their hiring process for development is top-notch. The tools and practices are well embraced. The management is empathetic and understanding towards a true work-hard, play-hard mentality. The care for employees and their lifestyles is the gold standard among companies in the Silicon Valley.

The work is engaging, and there is always someone around to answer your questions when you need something. There is a strong amount of ownership and transparency, resulting in a collaboration that isn't possessive.

Cons

Due to the rapid growth and iteration, there tends to be a bit too much compartmentalization. Work on cross-training and don't abstract too much.

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you're doing. LinkedIn is going strong, and I have faith in what we are doing!
