Udemy

Free material to learn, fast growing. Lots of learning.

Don't fall for the positive reviews; most of Udemy's reviews are fake!

For example, there were 5 reviews on one day (Oct 17, 2019), and suspicious clusters of reviews in Udemy's history.

Udemy's work culture is toxic and especially condescending to new employees. There is a ton of turnover and burnout.

Senior leadership is a joke. I've had management training, and in some cases, was a lot more experienced than some people around me, yet I was somehow treated like I was a junior engineer.

I am glad I left.

Hire people for their appropriate role.

Many of the managers are poor communicators, can barely manage people, and are often chronic violators of good management practices. Promotion basically comes down to hanging out with the "in" crowd.

When I brought up issues to HR, I was surprised to learn they already knew about a certain manager's "shortcomings" and basically said, "He's known to do these types of things... try to work with him". WTF.
