I am mid process of interviewing at Coinbase for a product manager post. But just received another offer for Associate VP position at Healthcare Technology company (TC 200K)

Trying to make a decision in a few weeks but figured Blind fam is very knowledgeable about Coinbase, so a few questions:
1. Is Coinbase considered in the same category as FAANG?
2. Does Coinbase have a legitimate future outside of Bitcoin?
3. What is compensation like for a Senior Product Manager (L6?)? Glassdoor and levels.fyi isn't cutting it.

Any additional feedback would be great. #coinbase #productmanagement #product #productmanager #pm

  • Lol. Coinbase is easily going to be trading at $60B - $80B when it IPOs. If you get an offer at its $8B valuation you 100% will never worry about comp again. It’s literally part of the new generation of FAANG

    1. No. And it doesn’t matter.

    200k TC would be what an L4 PM at Coinbase makes. That’s like somebody 2 years out of school.

    L5 would get you to around 280-300k. L6 would get you to 360-410k.

    With a clear path to Coinbase IPO, the upside would be worth exploring - financially and for seeing the action firsthand. That is, unless you have a strong purpose to be in healthcare.

    OP
    This post has aged.

    I am a month and half in at the VP (healthcare) job. Best decision I ever took, managing a large team, big budgets(tens of millions), and have major influence at a public company. I have been thrown into the fire and loving it. Serious growth potential and incentives.

    Having said that, Coinbase was one of the best interview processes I have gone through, I wish the company the best during their IPO.
