To be fair. Not all HR departments are like that. I’ve been through big layoffs during the last recessions and we let people go the day they joined and gave them 3 month severance packages, cobra access and unemployment insurance.

Coinbase HR are just being jackasses and deserve to be blacklisted. This behavior should not be tolerated to prevent employees from giving 0 day notice when they quit and screwing over the rest of us. I know they are going in my hiring notebook for do not hire.




They say they are giving severance, so I wouldn't be so quick to judge.


They shouldn’t have rescinded offers and just let people people go the day they join. The damage is already done and there are comments on here about giving no notice.
