YMMV. I’ve heard a few stories where opened LinkedIn at work was treated as a massive red flag: “this person looks elsewhere, they are not committed to the company anymore”.
If you’re considered valuable at your current company, instead of being a red flag it can help you get a raise or other benefits.
This. I would rather post on any other social media site at work than Linkedin. It's a major signal that the person is looking for work.
No more such thing as commit to the company in western world anymore. Companies are definitely not commited to you.
It depends on your role. People in sales have it open all the time since it's a legitimate research tool for them.
