Pros

My lead wants to help me grow as a person, I feel heard. Work is challenging, but you take it at your own pace. I'm given plenty of opportunities to take time to learn and interact with other teams at the company.

Cons

Permanent WFH, I would like to have an office, but it's not too bad.

Hey! Thanks so much for leaving a review here. Shopify is absolutely a great learning environment: everyone here is both a learner and a teacher. Deliberate learners acquire new information or experience a new concept or skill, practice it, and self-reflect. We will stay true to the “jungle gym” approach to career development as it broadens the scope of opportunity beyond what traditional ones can offer. We will also not “prescribe” what a career path looks like as that is an individual choice and should reflect the goals, interests, and diversity of our people. It would be well worth your while to have a chat with your Lead or your HR partner about your current role if you feel you have more to offer, or your current experience would be better suited to something different within the company! Thank you again for the review, it is really appreciated!
