What's the Work-Life Balance Like at Udemy?
What People Are Saying About Udemy
-
Remote or Hybrid Flexibility: Company expectations include two in‑office days for those near hubs while allowing remote options elsewhere, enabling many to coordinate work with personal commitments. Location‑based discretion and a hybrid‑by‑default model create room to adapt to different circumstances.
-
Time Off Access: Exempt employees use a flexible, non‑accrual time‑off policy that supports stepping away without tracking a strict bank of days. Meeting‑free “UDays” further create protected space for rest, learning, or deep work.
-
Wellbeing Programs: A global parental‑leave policy, a two‑week ease‑back program, and family‑building assistance provide tangible support for life outside work. Mental‑health resources through Modern Health and Headspace reinforce overall wellbeing.
