Not my best rodeo

Pros

* They offered a competitive salary * Fully remote * Unlimited vacation

Cons

* The work culture was awful. People were really not the best to work with * Full of people full of themselves and not the best at propagating information, even when directly asked, it was always an air of "look it up" instead of being helpful * Had to intervene and escalate due an engineer being racist to another engineer. * Had my first ever need to raise my voice at work as someone was being aggressive with me and not respectful * The codebase is kind of a disaster. * Took away my enjoyment of coding

Pros

High salary, fast paced environment

Cons

Easy to get burnt out at Shopify. CEO exercises too much control over projects. Shopify also only really cares about their bottom line and will straight up say they don’t really care about employees as long as making a profit is prioritized.
