      Getting the fun things right, a few of the big things less so - Anonymous employee Shopify Employee Review

      Pros

      Amazing work environment. Culture is deliberate and smart for the long-term. Neat industry and tech. Good people.

      Cons

      A few people are being crushed by incompetent engineering management. It is questionable that parts of the organization can scale. The crushed people are in the terrible position of feeling like they are wasting their time and skills but don't want to leave because they love Shopify.

      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
