• 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.
