Bonjour, Merci beaucoup pour votre retour. Nous sommes ravi que vous ayez apprécié la culture d'entreprise, les avantages que nous offrons, et notre approche de transparence chez OpenClassrooms. Nous nous efforçons de créer un environnement de travail qui améliore la qualité de vie de nos collaborateurs grâce à des avantages tels que les tickets restaurants, l’accès à Gymlib, et la mutuelle entièrement prise en charge. De plus, notre politique de “remote first” et de flexibilité des horaires reflète notre engagement envers un contrat de confiance avec nos salariés. Nous prenons notes de vos préoccupations concernant le manque de direction. J’entends que vous semblez être déçu(e), mais il nous est difficile de répondre à ce commentaire sans avoir davantage d'informations. Nous sommes à l’écoute de toute critique constructive dans un souci d’amélioration continue. Concernant votre remarque sur le Leadership, nous prenons cela très au sérieux. Les managers, comme tous les membres de l’équipe, sont évalués par leur responsable hiérarchique, leurs pairs et leurs N-1 selon des grilles de performance. Il est toujours possible de faire remonter des problèmes rencontrés aux RH, y compris de manière anonyme. Cette année, nous avons également mis en place une formation dédiée aux managers pour les équiper des compétences requises, notamment celle d’opérer en tant que rôles modèles. C’est un sujet dans lequel nous investissons activement, afin d’assurer que tous nos managers incarnent nos valeurs et guident leurs équipes de manière exemplaire. Votre feedback est précieux pour nous et nous aide à identifier les axes de progression. N'hésitez pas à partager plus de détails ou des suggestions spécifiques si vous en avez, afin que nous puissions travailler à l'amélioration continue de notre organisation. Merci encore pour votre contribution et pour le temps que vous avez passé avec nous. The OpenClassrooms Team

Pros

The company offers unlimited vacation and they are serious about you taking it. You can end up with 5, 6, even 7 weeks of vacation, so long as your projects are done on time and well. As a result, when you need a break, you can take one, and when you need to work hard, you can. The students are inspiring and the whole company focuses on their positive experience.

Cons

Like many start-up cultures, the company uses a diverse range of platforms and products that don't always speak to each other. As a result, different teams may start the same project at the same time. They claim to have "market salaries" but in reality the pay is low.

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to send your feedback and for your work at OpenClassrooms. We are very grateful for the amazing work the team does all year long and we know how hard everyone works. It is therefore essential for us to ensure they are able to take well-deserved breaks to unwind when they feel they need it. No one can deliver a good job when exhausted, this is a win-win situation. As to the two flaws you mention, I would like to give additional information. First, regarding salaries, I can assure you that we do conduct regular market research and align our salary grid to them. In addition, we are currently leading a harmonization policy based on positions and skills that will allow us to have a clear and transparent reference table. Based on the global grade on Salaries and Benefits on Glassdoor, I would think that most people would not agree with you on this. As I mentioned above, we are strong believers in a win-win relationship with our collaborators and providing them with fair wages, advantageous benefits (free “mutuelle”, free access to Gymlib, meal vouchers, professional development support) and good working conditions (remote-first policy) is of the utmost importance to us. Please let us know if you think that your salary does not align to market benchmarks as we’d be happy to analyze your situation and give more precise feedback, or readjust if relevant. As to the many different tools and platforms used internally, this is indeed a situation that we are currently working on. Some tools are inherited from earlier times when our processes were not as structured as they are now, as they involved fewer people. As the team has grown considerably over the last two years, we have had to change our processes, and we now need to scale our tools accordingly. We have already started since last year in Product Management, and progressively in the Global Operations department but this is a long process to ensure the migration and safety of our data and make sure the new tools will be reliable in the long term. Getting there! Thank you for your patience on this matter. Please don’t hesitate to speak to your manager or contact me directly if you have any suggestions on how we can improve further.

Pros

It looks like this may be a good platform from the student's perspective.

Cons

I have been misled with the volume of expected unpaid training, and the recruitment post wasn't upfront about the extreme earnings limitations that arise from a variety of excuses related to the project-difficulty tiers, student-payment tiers and heavy limitations on new mentors. Openclassrooms has used misleading tactics in the recruitment process to swindle my time.
