Course Hero Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Being flown out to head office for onsite gatherings & my base salary are the two best things.

Wellness stipend, family planning benefits, good health insurance, great parental leave policy

Course Hero offers an amazing wellness package on top of the rest of the benefits.

There is a bonus plan for the achievement of company goals.

Work life balance is fair. Benefits are on par with expectations. Overall it's a good fit for me.

Wellness stipend and monthly lunches

The base salary is my favorite part.

Education, wellness, and meal stipends

Review from Marketing Dept

I think we offer a fairly competitive compensation package in relation to other tech companies in the SFBA. In addition, we review our compensation package annually tot ensure we remain competitive.

Review from HR Dept

We're a unique company that offers performance bonus, equity + refreshers, and meaningful benefits that reflect a positive quality of life outside of work.

Review from HR Dept

Variety of benefits, allowances and stipends.

Review from HR Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

It would be great if there were larger retention initiatives to boost employee morale after a year of many changes and or-orgs.

Review from Operations Dept

Better and more fair geographical based pay

Review from HR Dept

Comparable compensation as similar companies

Review from Engineering Dept

I'm a contract employee and they are thinking about full time conversions but not willing to negotiate salary. Considering on how much it cost to live in the Bay Area, it is unrealistic for us to keep the same salary without even being considered for a living stipend or some kind of bonus, pay bump

Review from Marketing Dept

Below market equity comp. Base salary comp is at market levels. Promotion process is incredibly opaque.
