How is everything at Coinbase? What's the TC for Sr.SWE? How is the WLB? Do they have any IPO plan?
Bad
Caught cold. Runny nose. 105 degree fever. On antibiotic as well.
God. I remember those time when Coinbase use to crash once every hour because everybody wanted to get into action. Nowadays its like a graveyard.
So I actually think things are quite good right now. There's been some noise with people leaving, but tbh I can only think of one recent departure that wasn't an addition by subtraction. Company is doing well by every metric it can be in a cool crypto market, just moved into a new office, everything feels quite solid and we're making solid progress. Not sure TC for senior but ic4 is ~200k, I suspect many people will be getting raises in the next few perf cycles to better reflect our valuation. Coinbase equity is definitely worth having imo, I think there's a lot of potential room for growth. WLB is far better than it use to be. It's still high growth so there are times when it's a bit crazy but usually I work roughly 10-6. No idea about IPO. I suggest checking out this video. I think Brian has done a much better job articulating the mission and strategy internally and publicly recently. It's a bit coolaide-y but overall I think it's quite good. https://youtu.be/HQaegigv6jU

I’ve got a couple friends there that are definitely making less than what LinkedIn pays. 4-5 YOE making ~200TC including Coinbase equity and bonus
And you let them keep working there?
Oh, do they have bonus? I heard bonus was 0.
