No. Coursera offers a choice of where to work, but its job postings also say the globally distributed team comes together intentionally for collaboration, complex problem-solving and key milestones. Some roles are tied to a country, a city or a hybrid office arrangement, so check the location line on each posting before you apply.
Coursera lists home office reimbursement and connectivity support among its benefits, and its careers site says people working from home get the tools and support they need to build a home office.
Coursera's postings describe competitive, zone-based pay aligned to your location, experience and role level. US roles fall into four pay zones, with the San Francisco Bay Area in US-Z1 and the NYC and Seattle metro areas in US-Z2. Total rewards also include bonus and RSU equity programs.
Coursera describes five stages: application, a recruiter chat, a hiring manager interview, panel interviews, and then offer and onboarding. The company says its interviews are structured and skills-based, and that it recruits across global locations.
Coursera covers tuition for degrees and extends learning access to employees' families. It also lists therapy, coaching, caregiving support, fertility benefits, an annual wellbeing stipend, generous parental leave, company-wide rest days and donation matching.
Coursera runs an annual Employee Engagement Survey. In 2025, 92% of employees took part, and the company says its engagement results beat the New Tech 1000+ benchmark.
