LinkedIn owns your work account. They can change the rules when they want.

LinkedIn has a B-grade safety score. Here's why. LinkedIn connects professionals. They also own your data depending on how you got there. This matters.

🔴 LinkedIn changes terms without telling you first. If the law requires it, they update the rules and you find out after. No advance notice.

🔴 Your employer owns your account, not you. If your company paid for LinkedIn, LinkedIn considers the account theirs to manage and keep. You're using it, not running it.

🟡 Your old credit cards stay on file and keep getting charged. LinkedIn will bill expired payment methods automatically. You have to manually remove them.

🟡 Silence means consent. If you keep using LinkedIn after they change the terms, you've accepted the new version. No opt-in required.

🟢 You can delete your account anytime without penalty. Close it whenever you want. No exit fees, no lock-in period.

The work account issue is the teeth here. If your employer set it up, LinkedIn considers it their property, not yours.
