Mountain View, CA · founded 2012
Coursera is the Mountain View ed-tech company that grew out of the original MOOC boom and is now a public company (COUR) selling degrees and professional certificates. Internally it runs like a distributed, remote-friendly tech firm — flexible PTO, company-wide rest days, and a genuine learning culture built around monthly AI sessions and quarterly hackathons. The flip side employees describe is a company under market pressure: a sliding stock, repeated reorganizations, and complaints that leadership lacks direction and that career growth has stalled on some teams.
