Ethical Profile

Mixed.

CoreWeave's ethical profile presents a mixed picture. Its GPU-intensive cloud services inherently demand significant energy, creating a conflict with planet-friendly operations due to a substantial carbon footprint. Regarding waste, its key supplier AMD's waste diversion rate dropped to 63% in 2023 from 83% in 2022, and a waste disposal violation was recorded in Markham, Canada. For worker respect, CoreWeave offers benefits like health insurance, 401k matching, and flexible PTO, with 87% CEO approval and 75% of employees recommending the company. However, Glassdoor reviews suggest potential issues such as high turnover and alleged labor law violations.
