      Pros

      -It's a rare opportunity to work for a company like Coinbase that's an industry leader in such a new & high growth space. Truly energizing to come into work everyday knowing we have so much cool stuff to build -Surrounded by super smart and passionate people -Leadership is very transparent and hold weekly 'Ask Me Anything' sessions -From what I've experienced, you get a lot of autonomy to do your job but have leaders readily available to help out -Very conscious of the hiring bar as we continue scaling out teams Long story short this place is awesome. Not often do you get a chance to work on so much greenfield stuff.

      Cons

      -Like any high growth company there are missteps along the way but leaders are quick to respond and correct course

      Pros

      - Very interesting technical challenges - A LOT of autonomy (could be a con) - Amazing perks (WFH stipend, random gifts all the time) - Very smart colleagues - Great communication all around the company - Exciting - Brilliant CEO and engineering execs - A lot of useful education and automation regarding processes

      Cons

      - There is a lot of autonomy so if you're the kind of person who needs the work to be handed to you, you'll have to adjust - Since crypto is a very fast paced field, you will often have multiple projects on the go at the same time so work-life balance is usually relatively bad, although the company does offer re-charge days (and weeks) so that we can all take time off. - This is the biggest con: you get assessed if you're "on-track" or "off-track" every quarter, if you're "off-track", you have 60 days to fix it. Quite an aggressive stance, similar to Amazon's PIP program which is notoriously toxic.
