Following acquisition... How, if at all, did Linkedin change as a company...
Feels like LinkedIn is truly one of the odd balls. WhatsApp and Instagram are going to be deeply integrated with facebook and have lost their independence.
Why did msft buy LinkedIn in the first place
I think they couldn’t justify their stock price which kept dropping, then it reached a point where MSFT saw it as a good price to purchase. Bought it for the data, though the data is all trash...
Hoped to integrate it with office. Social network for the enterprise.
they adopted Office, not completely willingly though, and stopped worrying about making a profit. That’s pretty much it.
Sounds silly... But, not forcing everyone to switch to PC or anything like that abomination 😜... Right?
probably nope as long as Satya still wants to retain those top talents, at least some of them, rather than forcing Jeff Weiner jumping off the window.
