Remote work

Coursera is a remote-first company. Location shouldn’t limit access to world-class learning, and we’re bringing this mindset to the way we evolve our workplace.  Our employees choose where they do their best work - whether you can choose to work from home, work from one of our offices, or try a combination of the two. 

Lifelong learning

On top of free lifelong access to courses and certificates on the platform, you can earn a free master’s degree and develop new skills. Coursera will cover the cost of tuition.

Health and wellness

We offer medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your dependents. Plus, free access to counseling and mental health services.

Parental leave

Get up to 16 weeks of fully-paid parental leave when you grow your family and bring a new child into your life.

Make-a-thon

We host Make-a-thon events twice a year to promote community and innovation. During Make-a-thon, you’ll dedicate time to attend workshops, work on passion projects, and pursue ideas outside of your day-to-day work.

Time away

Take paid time off when you need it. We have time off policies that promote flexibility so you can tailor your work schedule when life calls.

Equity 

Employees earn company stock, so you can own what we build together and share in our success.

Coursera Cares

The Coursera Cares program will reward employee volunteer hours with donation currency that can be allocated to the nonprofit of their choice. We recognize that many Courserians generously donate their time and skills to causes they deeply care about and this is our way of acknowledging and appreciating those efforts.
