What is the company culture like at Duolingo?

Great culture and WLB, colleagues are smart and collaborative

Moves slowly (like any other bigger tech company)

A mission you can get excited about, great benefits, great office culture

Middle management quality can be hit or miss, lots of time on Zoom since teams are fragmented

Good flexibility and interesting work

Work as a contractor is very inconsistent with little room for growth

Great culture, environment, and benefits

Not much tbh! Takes a lot of hard work, but what job doesn’t

decent culture (outside of product), good mission

no diversity, no support, bad location and not a lot of opportunity to change offices

- Great culture and emphasis on collaboration/having fun - Made several life long friends here - Post IPO stock gains were great while they lasted - CEO is smart and still in 'founder mode' - It's fun to work on problems in education for a brand that people love

- Comp is 80% of what you would get at Google or Facebook. The company is relying on its feel-good mission/stock growth to make up for the remaining 20%. The recent stock price crash has made this worse - HR had better act soon before best talent leaves. - We're hiring more people, but the scope of work for each person seems to be getting smaller over time. - Pittsburgh is a great city to live in but limits your career opportunities if you want to switch companies

Strong culture, fun brand, interesting work

People team - lack of clarity on compensation structures

Good pay and culture. CEO is genius

Culture on the other hand can seem cliquey, especially if you are not 100% into it.

Great culture. Great product. Missionary.

A bit top down specially when it comes to the product management.

Good communication and good team work

It can be very tough at times.
