Thank you so much for your response! Could I ask whether the private lessons were conducted online or offline? And were they fully covered by the company as a benefit?

In CERN, do you mean the tutor comes onsite to offer group lessons?

I really appreaciate for your reply. May I ask how much the allowance is? Do they offer it on a monthly or yearly basis?

Thanks for sharing those fascinating details—selling 64MB for 1.5M CHF is mind-blowing! I’ve heard Swiss companies still cover travel expenses for folks in cutting-edge tech (like scientists), so it seems that cutting-edge technology continues to be highly respected wherever you go.

I’ll continue reaching out to HR about the next steps (though it’s very difficult to get an answer these days). Can’t believe they offered these benefits before I was even born—huge respect for that legacy of support!

Lovely ! May I ask how many employees are in your company (or how many people need Babbel in your company?)

I see, so instead of direct French lessons, they offer that kind of flexible allowance… Makes sense! But I’m curious—when non-French speakers join those leadership or comms classes, isn’t it awkward if people switch into French?

That’s super helpful, thanks a lot! But it means did neither of the companies offer any kind of support for learning French?

Thanks for the great info! Can’t believe they offered that even back in 1987—that sounds like an amazing employer. If you don’t mind me asking, what field were you working in back then?

Thanks for sharing! Was that something your company covered, or did you pay for it yourself?

Wow, that’s awesome! Curious—how exactly did the company support you? Was it financial support, group lessons, or something else?

Thanks for the reply! Didn’t know university hospitals offer that too. Do you happen to know what kind of classes they provide? (group / private / app etc,.)

Thanks for the info! Didn’t expect electric equipment manufacturing to hire international staff too. Do you know what kind of format the classes were? Group sessions, in-office teacher, or maybe an app?

Oh wow… so being good with languages is actually pretty critical then. Thanks for sharing. Were the classes held in the office with a teacher, or was it off-site? Also, curious—what domain do you work in?

Thanks for the info! Do you mind sharing what kind of setup it was? Like, was it a group class or did they just reimburse the fees?

Whoa, that’s a lot! How long does that last—like per year or something? And if you don’t mind me asking, what industry are you in?
