My company wants us to update our LinkedIn with a stylized, employer branded headshot and background image. Has anyone run into this? It feels like it impedes a bit on the professional story I’ve been building of which this position is a part but not the totality. Anyone encountered this? Pushed back?

I think it would bother me a little, but not that much. At the end of the day, Linkedin is about selling yourself for your next employer and part of that is your success at and association with your current employer. And when you leave, you take it down. Are you trying to hide your current employer on LI ?

My employer is listed on my LinkedIn so I’m not hiding anything

I’ve had to do it for New Business/Biz Dev roles...but as a strategist?? FOH

You can say no.

oh hell no. i don't even list my current employer

I'm holding an offer from MakeMyTrip and another offer from OlaElectric. Ninjacart is willing to make me an offer.

There's been a delay from HRs of the companies in a similar way. How do I urge them to send me the offer letter without sounding pushy? I had reached out to some of the HRs myself. Would that be too awkward if I accept & back out their offer?
