Very cool work - werkgeversreview Software Engineer bij Coinbase

The people are amazing. Some of the smartest I've met and yet also the best to work with. I learned so much from working here.

High intensity of work (but you also get good rest). Work hard, play hard. Upper management has been making worrying decisions with AI (eg all in with too little of a plan or oversight).

They pay you way over market

Working at Coinbase is actually one of the most hysterical things I have ever experienced in my life. When I tell you that almost exactly 90% of the people who work here have no clue what is going on—and the higher up you get to the top, the worse and more clueless people get—I am not kidding at all. I have worked at many different tech companies and I have never seen such widespread incompetence in my life. The only reason that Coinbase continues to lay people off is because they have no idea what they are doing. They don't know why they're hiring people. They don't know what the mission is. They don't know what the product does, they don't understand their clients, and they don't know how to make money. I would actually be afraid to put my money in Coinbase after working here, but moreover, I want everyone to know if you are reading this you should be afraid to take a job. It is the most crushingly stupid thing on earth to work at Coinbase, even though they pay a lot of money, because it is actually a clown show to the highest degree.
