Pros

It was a fun challenge with high-impact projects. The support system is good, and people are very willing to help (at least my team was). Everyone is generally very friendly and open to conversation.

Cons

I was working for the U.S. office, and I was a little upset at the fact that although I was doing the same work, they decided to pay me less, even with the already lessened experience.

The common argument is that the company is going through struggles, so cutting costs was inevitable. However, Coursera had been doing particularly well through the pandemic (for obvious reasons).
