I was talking to recruiters few months back when i started interview prep and they had so many job openings. Few weeks back when i finally felt ready to interview Affirm recruiter said all roles are filled and they have no opening for sr. Level. Coinbase recruiter said org has filled all reqs, robinhood recruiter just ghosted me Is Affirm and coin next? Affirm’s stock is in deep Shit, i am down 70k myself lol. No hope for it in short term and BNPL companies overall look like having bleak future. Coin overall feels still super expensive and with crypto winter looming layoffs feel possible TC- 350k before stock dip #layoff #severance
Did an interview with affirm the other day. Morale seemed low Why go from apple to affirm? Seems like a step down compared to RH and CB
I mean interviewing doesn’t hurt
I'd guess that moral is low at Affirm, RH, and CB. But yes, moral is low -- especially for folks that joined post IPO and got shitty pricing on their RSUs. Affirm did give a bunch of people more RSUs to help blunt the impact of our stock price.
Back when I was job hunting I almost wound up going with Affirm, dodged a bullet there
Is Affirm that bad?
Only because the stock got hammered not long after I started at Ramp!
Coin looks expensive? In what way? P/E is 9 right now
Coin is related to btc movement. However idiotic that is because they make money from transactions.. i believe btc will drop 30-40% from Here
Yes. Coin revenue is jumping like crazy every year. It was around 1-2B when it went public and its around 6 now. Suddenly made the stock a cheap buy
Work in the industry - Affirm is fucked. Their unit economics isn’t sustainable and they have no moat
Do you think their Debit+ card will work out?
Thats what they said about Juciero. Some people just dont have vision
Yesterday when I was in a team match meeting with coinbase, they mentioned they still had headcounts. The headcounts shouldn’t go away that fast?
Affirm relies on people to buy stuff they don’t have money for. What do you think will happen in an inflationary environment or recession??
Affirm is super sensitive to any economic downturn. They are basically buying credit card quality debt for worse returns.
I was planning to buy stuff from affirm on loan but they aren’t giving loan now lol
I just received loan last week and bought with Affirm. Maybe your credit has some problem?
Coinbase is still hiring like crazy for engineers.are you in a different role?
Really? I got response that hiring is done for org for now
Interviewing at Coinbase and can confirm they told me they are still hiring like crazy
TC or gtfo Also didn’t they offer to hire all of the fast.co engineer layoffs
Where are my manners mini Andy (Mandy?) updated TC
Yep, Affirm took in close to a hundred engs from Fast so roles are probably filled for now.
