Pluspunten

Remote is nice, the people you work with day to day can be awesome. The pay is decent, not great but decent.

Minpunten

Trying to get anything done here is incredibly difficult. They say to think outside the box but when you try to do something new you hear "that's not really the Shopify way". Unless the idea comes from management who has no idea what is and isn't possible, but if it can't be done or it doesn't go well it is your fault. Even though every step you do needs to be approved by someone above you, so nothing you ever do is really your own work. But if it doesn't go well it is your fault. Also people will just be gone, I cannot count the amount of great people I worked with and would be in the middle of a project with who would just be laid off with no idea who would take up the slack, which caused projects to get stalled or just die. Which once again comes back around on you when it wasn't successful or didn't have impact. Do not come to Shopify. You might get lucky and get on a good team with a manager that won't micromanage you and gaslight you during your time. But it is more likely that it will happen to you also. Also the new promotions and pay raises are a joke. You will not get either.

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
