So many words until this:

> Coinbase’s mission is to create an open financial system for the world. This means we want to use cryptocurrency to bring economic freedom to people all over the world.

Basically sounds like “mission focused” = “do your job”

Yes do what you are hired for. How does this not compute in the minds of many is baffling to me.

Well the mission seems inherently political (economic freedom), so coinbase is asking its employees to take a myopic mission focused approach while simultaneously finding the mission inspiring politically and not mentioning politics at work.

Ultimately employees want more than just to punch the clock and pay their mortgage, especially SF knowledge workers.

That's fantastic! They're honest about the employment arrangement and straightforward about expectations.
