Pending on sites - fb, argo ai, airbnb, databricks Most of the onsites are by end of month as need some time for more preparation and these 2 offers have strict deadlines and already delayed decision by 1 week #uber #coinbase #tech #offers
Do you know what team/org at Coinbase? WLB is really not bad. Being fully remote means you can chill whenever you want, just be good at your job when you need to be.
Team match pending
How is institutional trading team?
I’ve worked at both and both suck. Lol
Lol. Had a discussion with Chime recruiter and he is giving 7k stocks at 60+ per share valuation. So might end up with 350 as tc. Dont know if it will be 2x 3x in couple of years.
How's Chime compared to these 2?
Two very different companies and products. If you are up for hectic workload and want to try out being in Crypto world, Coinbase it is. Uber otherwise (slightly better wlb and TC). Is the Uber compensation for level 5b?
Its for 5a
Are you currently L6 at Amazon?
Yes
I don't know how Amazon levels... but I wouldn't take L5 if you are currently L6?
Uber! Take the front loading. If you don't like it after 2 years, you can always go somewhere else.
That makes total sense.
What about the risk with crypto? Your equity value has a lot more downside
Thats why they are giving equity for 1 year. Or that what recruiter told. Not sure if true.
What’s on call like there?
One week every 2 months. With almost 15 20 pages a week. Thats like reduced on call based on past😜
Uber won't exist after the recession. Crypto is here forever. Web3 has just begun.
Thats bold one😮
Countries are adopting it. Uber is a luxury and will never be profitable
Is this core services at Uber ?
Yes. Don’t want to specify exact org or it might be too easy to spot me🤣
Lol no problem. I had few friends working there. Solid area Good luck !

What happens when most of your team is Indian?
Funny that for uber you write flat stock but coinbase fast growing. Coinbase sounds a lot riskier and the upside is not there since your grant is decided yearly. Curious was this uber 5a or 5b?
5a. Fast growing business for coinbase as they are trying different things. Not sure about stock either.
Uber is in same range since ipo.
