Overhyped and disingenuous - Designer Shopify Employee Review

Hi, there! Firstly, I would like to thank you for taking some time to share your feedback. It is true that Shopify has scaled and is going through some bigger changes. Without discomfort you can’t have change. Part of the culture here at Shopify is to thrive on change and to learn to become comfortable with uncertainty. We are working on creating a better environment and culture while we all grow together, sometimes all it takes is time. When it comes to leadership, there is always room to grow and improve. We have created a leadership development program called “Leading at Shopify” to help leads be successful. Through this program, leads explore how to embody Shopify’s leadership expectations through a blend of self-directed work, remote classroom sessions and in-person training events with their peers. This past year we’ve introduced a job level system and career pathing to help employees with their career journey. The new system was made to allow each individual to own their own development and therefore own how they proactively work toward their individual goals. It allows employees to level up based on their impact here. Diversity is an organizational imperative here at Shopify. We are continuing to work on building a global culture of belonging to ensure that everyone feels included, heard and valued. Our ultimate goal is to bring more voices to tech and entrepreneurship as we care deeply about those who work at Shopify and inevitably want everyone to feel valued.
