2U Response
6yWe appreciate your feedback. At 2U, we are proud of our people-first culture and the importance of having candid, honest, and open conversations about the business. We’re disappointed to hear that you don’t feel this at this time. In just weeks, the Coronavirus pandemic has reshaped the way the world lives, works, and learns. These are trying times for all of us.
Across our business, we’ve needed to take critical steps to ensure the safety and job security of our employees, as well as the continuity and delivery of our offerings. While it’s never easy to make these decisions, like most businesses we have responsibility to be cautious with our investments while we evaluate the long-term impact of the pandemic. That being said, we're confident that the actions we’re taking will allow us to best serve our university partners, students and employees during this challenging time while creating a far-stronger 2U.
Helping you grow within your career is very important to us. We encourage you to talk with your manager and request constructive feedback and a plan outlining what you need to accomplish in order to position yourself for the next step in your career at 2U. They can also explain our corporate bonus plan, which in 2019 was based on company performance targets, not individual ones. Overall, your insights are valuable to understanding what’s most important to our employees. If you would like to discuss further, please reach out to your HR business partner or email feedback@2U.com and reference “my Glassdoor review.”
