That’s why we built an employee value proposition (EVP): to provide candidates with the blueprint showing how Kraken’s mission, culture, and values have made us the #14 Most Loved Workplace in the world.
What is an EVP?
An EVP is a statement of what you can expect from an employer – the organizational characteristics that will define your day-to-day work experience. It takes a holistic view of a workplace and often includes cultural, career development and employee benefit sections.
Our EVP helps candidates understand what drives us. Generally, they’re the same things that drive prospective employees who end up being a solid fit as a Kraken employee (aka Krakenite). Our EVP inspires commitment, helps us attract the most qualified talent worldwide, and describes the Krakenite experience.
Mission above all
Our mission guides everything we do at Kraken. We work hard to explain our culture clearly so we can attract candidates who are the right fit.
We believe in universal access to a workplace where Krakenites can invest in themselves and grow as professionals. Just as we work to be a bridge from traditional finance to crypto in a larger sense, we also provide the support, tools and education to help people from all industries transition to working in crypto.
But it all starts with mission. And because mission is so important at Kraken, if you share our passion to help people gain financial freedom, there’s a good chance that Kraken is where you belong.

We give Krakenites the tools and resources they need to build a crypto career and create a more inclusive financial future.
