Ventajas
Interesting problems and fast paced work that gives you a lot of autonomy. In absolute terms, compensation is pretty good.
Desventajas
- Thoughtless reorgs cause thrash. - Work life balance is awful - Quote from the COO "we know a lot of you are sprinting, that's life at Coinbase" - Continually talking about operational issues, but unwilling to pay for people to handle them. - Exec team seems very out of touch. Specifically for Canadian employees: - Benefits have been reduced over the past 2 years. - No raises have been given. - Pay is significantly less than US peers. - My feeling is that the company is trying to suss out just how much they can short-change Canadians. If you're considering joining from Canada, keep in mind that Coinbase is actively reducing our comp package over time. Would not recommend for anyone. But if you're Canadian, wouldn't even consider joining right now.
