I've also gotten my last few jobs there. It's great for that. Even if it's 90% low effort recruiter spam.

It's also full of "greatest team in the world", pizza parties, "incredible" training sessions, and "meetings of great minds". And now it's turned into a bunch of comedy reels. Blah.

Is it really great for that? In my experience, LinkedIn makes finding a job easier as much as Facebook makes it easy to find friends... LinkedIn encouraged and made normal gross exagerations and overall dishonest discussions and relationships and recommendations that made it impossible to form any valuable opinion about anyone or anything.
