Company mission
Based on the belief that it is knowledge, skills and experience, rather than a piece of paper, which defines people's futures, Degreed's mission is to help users to achieve their own personal educational missions.
Our take
Degreed is a high calibre name in the employee upskilling space and is used by over a third of Fortune 500 companies. Some of their best known clients include Pepsico, Shopify, American Airlines, Boeing, HP and Visa.
As well as providing a learning platform with courses, books, videos, articles and podcasts for skills development, the company also uses the data it gathers to connect learners with suitable projects and job opportunities, even within their own company. This is where Degreed’s best value lies, as employees are more likely to trust and remain loyal to companies where they can see a path for how skills development allows for career growth.
With just enough investor backing and funding to expand beyond their offices in the USA, the Netherlands, the UK and Australia, Degreed is well positioned to grow even more in the future, especially as organisations in these countries seek to use employee benefits to differentiate themselves.

Benefits
- Work where (and when) you work best: Degreed has always been a remote-work company with small offices where the biggest concentration of our people live. Team lunches, travel budgets for on-site visits, virtual happy hours, weekly all-hands meetings, and monthly release parties keep our teams connected and working as one.
- Health, wellness, and beyond: Degreed is expanding both organically and through acquisition. As we build a global company, benefits outside the US are commensurate with the presence in each region. In the US market, we've beefed up the common benefits (health, dental, vision) with some additions, like dependent care allowance, 401(k) matching, and funding your personal learning mission each quarter.
- Generous and flexible time off: Recuperation is just as important as getting things done, so we encourage our team to recharge their batteries often.
- Best-in-class tech and software: We’ll even support making your home office awesome. No more working at the coffee table.
Company values
- A Culture of Connection
- Growth and Opportunity
- Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging
