LinkedIn is supposed to be a place for networking and career growth, but somewhere along the way, it turned into a TED Talk that never ends. Enter the LinkedIn influencers—the self-appointed prophets of hustle culture. They share “life-changing” advice that sounds deep until you realize it’s just common sense wrapped in buzzwords. These posts are equal parts absurd and unintentionally hilarious. There’s the guy who claims waking up at 3:47 a.m. is the secret to success, and the woman who thinks every minor inconvenience is a leadership opportunity. The best part? They write like they’re auditioning for a motivational poster. But instead of inspiring, they just make you want to log off. Still, there’s an odd charm to it all—watching people perform success for an audience of strangers is both cringey and captivating.

Here are 28 LinkedIn posts from influencers who might just be the chaotic evil of career advice. Expect hustle-culture hot takes, bizarre metaphors, and the kind of storytelling that makes you question if any of it really happened. It’s business theater at its finest.

LinkedIn influencers thrive on engagement, which is why the posts are so over the top. They’re designed to be shared, commented on, and argued about. The result? A feed that feels less like professional networking and more like an improv class gone wrong. But in their own way, these influencers serve a purpose: they remind us not to take the professional world too seriously. And maybe that’s the best advice of all.

If you enjoyed this collection of career chaos, explore more lists about bad business advice, workplace humor, online influencer fails, and cringe-worthy networking moments. Hustle culture will still be there tomorrow.
