Don’t quit your old job until you start your new job!
- 0des 4y agoMonkey never lets go of one vine until theyve firmly grasped another
- diehunde 4y agoIt gets complicated if you want to leave your old job on good terms and give your 2-week notice.
- jchw 4y agoIn many cases, it's OK to negotiate your start date a couple of weeks out from the offer agreement. I've gotten almost a month in both of my last offers.
- CydeWeys 4y agoYes, and the point of this article is that Coinbase is rescinding employment for people who have accepted offers but haven't started yet. These people have already given notice at their current jobs and now won't have a new one to start. They are Screwed.
- tomjakubowski 4y agoIn California does a rescinded offer after quitting another job qualify someone for unemployment benefits? It's a small amount compared to tech salaries, but is helpful when between jobs.

- devoutsalsa 4y agoI’m sure you could. You can collect unemployment even if you quit without a new job in many cases.
- jchw 4y agoWell yes. But this is still the correct procedure to follow, even if it has some risk.
- saagarjha 4y agoIndeed. I switched jobs recently and wanted to provide notice but had to do so without a signed offer. I was thankfully confident enough that I'd be OK even if things fell through to go ahead with it, but in different circumstances I might not have been able to do it.
- shawabawa3 4y agoI've literally never changed job without having at least a month off in between When else are you going to be able to take time off so easily? Rescinded offers are pretty rare to waste such a good opportunity
