LinkedIn - Why No one talks about it 🤫

Everyone here talks about FAANG, Msft, Uber, AirBnb. Just wondering why there is no talk about LinkedIn. Given how close their product is to Facebook, but with more growth and earning potential (job search, Premium, ads), why do people overlook this company? Is the compensation not at par with FAANG or is it something else?

LinkedIn pay and benefits are pretty incredible. Also way less effed than FB or Amazon for sure!

LinkedIn work sucks is what I have heard

There is no work life balance there. No work only life.

I heard it described at a hotel for devs. Nobody has anything to do but eat food and go to the gym and just loaf around and look busy.

🤫 Now there will be layoffs, because you let them know they could do it with half the people.

Those lazy weasels had it coming. 😬

Good place to work but it has no prestige beyond tech. No one knows cares about LinkedIn other than a month or two before they are looking for a job change. Also they don't market anything fancy they are doing to improve the perception of the company either. It just looks like a sparingly used website to most people.

If prestige outside tech matters, I tell people I work for Microsoft, which is not false.

As if a supermodel is gonna date me if I tell them I work for G!

Solid company. With doing essentially same as fb it has way better image.

Cant comment on LI from an employee perspective. But from a job seeker perspective, they are certainly the best people I have encountered. Very responsive recruiter, very respectful interviewers and a process that is not meant to demean the applicant. From a product perspective, I leave it to the current employees to comment on the "fancy" aspect. They have many B2B products and most B2B products are not really fancy or not something you might have even heard of outside the circle. Starmine anyone?

Is TC not comparable to FAANG because of lack of refreshers?

LinkedIn Humphrey G Oct 22, 2019

TC more than FAANG for top performers.

Is it 10%?
