Pros

Course Hero has a great company culture and very collaborative, helpful employees.

As a new grad, I always feel comfortable asking my coworkers for help, which is very important to me.

Fun company outings, happy hours, and team lunches really help you get to know your coworkers.

There are bi-weekly workshops to help with career development, and you are encouraged to attend conferences for personal growth.

The senior management is very present, and they make an effort to connect with each employee, regardless of position.

The engineering projects are productive and impactful, and they give you the opportunity to work all over the stack and really understand the codebase.

Everyone has the opportunity to pitch new ideas and decide what their product team works on each quarter, so you really feel invested in your team and what it accomplishes.

Overall, I have really enjoyed my time working at Course Hero, and I don't plan on leaving any time soon!

Cons

Most engineers don't switch teams very often. So, if you want a ton of variety in which teams or products you are working on, you might not find that here.
