SAN FRANCISCO, April 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Udemy (Nasdaq: UDMY), a leading destination for learning and teaching online, today announced that it has been officially certified as a Great Place to Work® in the United States. The prestigious accolade is based upon a thorough independent analysis conducted by the Great Place to Work® Institute USA.
Great Place to Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation. The accreditation process is based on direct feedback from employees, provided as part of an extensive and anonymous survey about their workplace experience.
“It's imperative that our employees feel valued, supported and empowered as part of the Udemy team,” said Gregg Coccari, Chairman and CEO of Udemy. “With 94 percent of our U.S. based Udemates citing Udemy as a great place to work, it’s a testament to our strong culture and commitment to grow together.”
“Great Place to Work Certification isn’t something that comes easily – it takes ongoing dedication to the employee experience,” said Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place to Work. “It’s the only official recognition determined by employees’ real-time reports of their company culture.”
According to Great Place to Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified great workplace. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits and have a fair chance at promotion.
This accolade continues Udemy’s momentum of being recognized as a Great Place to Work, having recently been awarded the Great Place to Work Ireland Certification, fifth Best Mid-Sized Company in Ireland, and one of the best workplaces for women in Ireland.
