Pros

Shopify will push you to be a constant learner to improve your craft. You are expected to improve by 40% YoY. There’s a deep appreciation for the craft. Shopify is truly mission driven, and that’s mostly possible because of the business model that is directly aligned with the mission and the customers.

Cons

If you don’t like change this place is not for you. Shopify moves fast and is always adjusting the team formation for maximum impact on the mission.

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

- 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

Cons

- 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
