Pluspunten

People are nice, good crew of work staff. Platform is good and easy to work with

Minpunten

The scheduling sucks. Be prepared to work 12 days straight with one day off. Instead of having a normal consistent schedule your days off change all the time. It would be so easy to have a consistent schedule with over 300 staff but instead it is total chaos. The busiest shifts end up with 16 staff. It is a nightmare! Only upper management get stat holidays!!! Stat holidays should be optional. If you are considering a job with Shopify say goodbye to every stat day including Family Day, Easter, Christmas, etc, etc....

Thanks for taking the time to submit your review of our schedule. Because we are a 24/7 operation, we have team members on at all times. This is very common in a contact centre environment. No one on our support team works 12 days in a row - and if this happened - you should be talking to your HR partner about it. The Guru team is the most important team we have here and we do our best to make sure people get the time off they need. The schedule is in constant review and we take the time to listen to our employees concerns. I really encourage you to reach out to your squad lead and HR partner to see what we can do to accommodate your schedule.

Pluspunten

- Kind and talented co-workers - Generous AI token spend - Fairly transparent company (has been getting less transparent over the years) - Lots of opportunity for impact

Minpunten

- Product management discipline is quite lacking since the new CTO joined - Microsoft culture is adding more chaos and stress, and causing projects to actually go slower - Managers are afraid to tell the truth to Mikhail about the loopholes in engineering; they just want to look good, so they rush their teams to ship crap - Top engineering leaders are moving out of management roles or leaving the company - Tobi used to be far more involved in ensuring a high engineering bar, but seems to have handed over the reins to the new Microsoft regime
