At Coinbase, we believe that focusing on our mission is how we’ll make the biggest impact on the world. Brian Armstrong, our CEO and co-founder, explained this approach in detail in a blog post earlier this year. This is a conscious choice on our part and we know it sets us apart from some companies.
That said, I want to be absolutely clear on these points: We are committed to maintaining an environment that is safe, supportive and welcoming to employees of all backgrounds. We do not accept intolerant behavior. And we are committed to our Belonging, Inclusion and Diversity strategy, which we recently revamped to ensure it continues to meet our needs now that we have more than 1,000 employees spread around the world.
We’re a hypergrowth company, and this means we’re regularly pushed out of our comfort zones. We encourage employees to “sprint and recover” — to do great work quickly, but to also take the time they need to rest and recharge. To help make this possible, we offer flexible PTO and flexible work hours. As you mentioned, we shifted to remote-first earlier this year, and we also created several extra company-wide paid days off (“Recharge Days”) this year.
We’re proud of the team we’ve assembled at Coinbase, and we’re confident that our focus on our mission will help us make an impact on the world.
