Last Internship. Coinbase vs Pinterest
Interested in your opinions on what I should take for my final intership for May 2021. Both are remote. Coinbase pays $50/hour. Pinterest pays $9500 per month + $10000 signing bonus. For the possible return offers, Coinbase has a NYC office and the option to be fully remote. Pinterest seems to pay higher, but does not support remote work and does not have a NYC office (and I truly love NYC). Also, Coinbase pay for new grads may increase with the recent IPO. With a return offer being the endgoal, what would you all choose? #coinbase #pinterest #software
Since you want NYC, you really only have 1 option?
Also think about what kind of projects is more interesting to you.
If you ever get advice from a mentor telling you to maximize for Total Comp as an Intern in your early 20’s...find a new memtor. Do what makes you happy. You’re clearly going to make a lot of money if you have these opportunities already in your career
If you want to do ML, data or infrastructure, go with PINS
Why lol? I’m an incoming intern at Coinbase
Easily Coinbase
Why?
Hi! while i may not be able to help you with your question, can you please let me know what we can expect in the phone interview for intern position? i have an upcoming interview with pinterest tomorrow! can i dm you?
Pinterest is probably a safer bet given Coinbase is likely to be public by the time you join. If it were new grad, I’d recommend Coinbase.
If you would recommend Coinbase for a fresh grad , then why not Coinbase for internship as well?
I’d recommend pre-IPO equity rather than $PINS
