Pros:

• An appropriate platform to flaunt increasingly obsolete skill set for potential employers
• Somewhat satisfying to claim “limited working proficiency” for language other than English
• Momentarily get parents off back for not planning for professional life after Whitman
• Surprisingly useful tool to find attractive workplace suitors
• Great to make sure you’re still doing better than that dickhead from high school
• That’s about it

Cons

• It’s kind of like Facebook but way shittier
• Being in the prime of your life, yet still spending time attempting to sell soul to corporate America
• Inevitable disappointment when zero job offers come in
• Subsequent disappointment when you realize its because you’re not as impressive as previously thought
• Sheer horror as you find out that the people you have been stalking get notified of you viewing their profile
• Fuck Linkedin
