Pros

Coinbase does so many things to make sure you enjoy your job.

Amazing benefits.

The crypto industry is really exciting, and hard work pays off.

Lots of smart people who are good to work with, and the company outlook is generally positive.

Cons

Onboarding is good for a remote company, but still not great.

Knowledge sharing has a lot of room for improvement.

It's difficult to make an impact as a new hire since the company leans so heavily on those who have been here for a long time.

WLB could be better, but isn't awful.

Advice to Management

Make sure middle management has enough time to invest in new hires and foster team culture.

Too much of their time is spent trying to satisfy OKRs.

Encourage more knowledge spreading so that new hires can contribute and prevent those who have been here for some time from burning out.
