Hey, there! Thank you for taking time to write a review. We are so happy to hear that you've had a good time working with Shopify. It's important for us to be able to offer benefits and perks that will help our employees maintain a good lifestyle and have a positive work-life balance. Going digital by default has it's challenges for some, but by being able to take advantage of today's technologies, we can arrange for virtual meetings to sustain an office-like environment. Participating in the Sidekicks program is also a great way to socialize and get together with your team. Again, thank you for sharing your feedback!

Pros

Remote first culture. If you want freedom of location and a company to truly mean and support it - this is the place.

Cons

Constant change. Nothing to hold on to in this role, compensation, KPI's, tools all change every quarter.

Pros

Legacy Shopify ICs and lower-level managers are excellent and generally quite nice (company's Canadian after all) Caliber of engineering talent is generally high Dev-friendly stack (Ruby/Rails) Bleeding-edge AI adoption with unlimited token budget

Cons

Recently brought over a CTO from Microsoft: he brought with him a lot of not-at-all-nice people who are highly political, frequently rude/condescending to legacy Shopifolk, and make consistently bad/dev-hostile technical decisions Bleeding-edge AI adoption is being used to justify unreasonably increased expectations
