Coinbase Company Culture & Values

Coinbase is a mission‑first and high‑performance culture, emphasizing clear communication, efficient execution, and an act like an owner mindset. It’s intense but balanced with intentional breaks like company‑wide recharge weeks to sustain pace over time. 

The culture prizes repeatable innovation, positive energy, continuous learning, and customer focus. Shipping fast with tolerance for failure (including venture bets) while obsessing over quality and craft to build trusted, secure, easy‑to‑use products.

Operationally, teams link the mission to day‑to‑day work via an OKR model that outlines the Directly Responsible Individual (DRI) for each priority to ensure clear ownership and faster decisions.
