Thanks so much for taking the time to post a review. It is great to receive the feedback of those areas within Shopify which you as an employee appreciate (namely the people, culture, structure, pay & benefits). On the other hand, it is unfortunate to read that you do see issues with regard to diversity and internal movement here at Shopify as these are areas where the Talent team has been actively working to further drive improvement. In regard to diversity we are constantly looking to improve upon the tech industry averages though diversity hiring initiatives designed to provide all qualified applicants the opportunity to succeed within our recruitment process… and once hired, as you have highlighted, we already have amazing people and a company culture which supports the growth and celebrates the impact of every team member. On the topic of growth, the Shopify philosophy has always been to own your own development (OYOD) and seek out growth opportunities that best support you as an individual. Whilst the OYOD principle provides a solid foundation we are also actively identifying and promoting specific internal growth opportunities for employees to pursue should they be interested - so you are not really doing it all on your own! If you have further questions about personal growth or internal movement please speak to your Lead, Business Partner or search our internal vault.

Pluspunten

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

Minpunten

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

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
