I think crypto is going to zero eventually, so there’s that

Yeah right. Bitcoin going to zero and fiat going to infinity.

No plan to pay down the national debt, fund bankrupt pensions, mitigate the soaring cost of healthcare, or make homeownership a tangible goal...

But Bitcoin has no prospects...

Girl bye.

I’d say do it. Even if you don’t believe in cryptocurrencies themselves, coinbase is still a good startup with a lot of smart people. You’ll learn lots and set a good foundation for a career in tech and product management .

Coinbase is solid for a crypto marketplace. However, are you wanting to exit now? You will certainly grow your income much more staying at BCG awhile longer and potentially leverage even better exits at higher pay. Are they offering equity? That would be the larger factor because Coinbase could be acquired down the road

If you want to be a PM in the long run, I say take it and see what you can learn. You may bounce around as a PM in different areas of tech before you find your niche. Consulting probably won’t teach you any more stuff that will be relevant to PMing than what you’ve already learned at this point. Regarding the salary bump from the BCG promotion, unless you would plan on staying an extra year to gather some of the benefits of that higher salary, probably won’t make a difference. The company hiring you should have their own pay bands and what they want to invest in a role, so what you’re making at BCG is moot. In some states, employers can’t even ask for your current salary anyways

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all. I personally don’t see too many issues working at either Amazon or Facebook because I work at Deloitte where I’m sure we have many questionable clients and worked in financial services before. Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?
