How should I read Coinbase’s work-arrangement labels?

Coinbase uses Remote by country or region, Hybrid, and office-specific labels. Read the location field for the role you want, because any in-office expectation is stated there.

Where are Coinbase’s remote roles available?

Current remote listings cover the USA, Canada, UK, India, Brazil, Singapore, Israel, Cyprus, EMEA, Australia, Bermuda, UAE, and Luxembourg.

What time-off programs does Coinbase offer?

Coinbase lists unlimited PTO, four company-wide Recharge Weeks each year, sick time, bereavement leave, and sabbatical eligibility after four years.

What family benefits does Coinbase offer?

Coinbase has published 18 weeks of paid parental leave for all parents, along with fertility counseling and benefits. Its current postings describe the rest of its leave more generally, as a generous time off and leave policy, and publish no figure for the fertility benefit, so ask for the specifics rather than assuming a number.

Does Coinbase provide support for a home office?

Yes. Coinbase's own careers material lists stipends for wellness, remote work, and cell or internet use, and its current job postings name a wellness stipend and a mobile and internet reimbursement. It publishes no amount for any of them, and it notes that specific offerings vary greatly by country, so confirm what applies to your location before you count on a figure.

What kinds of products does Coinbase work on?

Beyond consumer trading, Coinbase’s current product work includes institutional custody for approved Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, Coinbase Prime services, and a developer platform that supports onchain activity.
