Pros

I work on the Talent Acquisition team here, and it's wonderful. Limitless growth opportunities if you go out of your way to ask for/get them. I feel like I can be myself here; there's no work persona. No fear of repercussions when making a complaint or giving feedback either.

Cons

Not really many downsides. If anything I'd say that during meetings, not everyone has a chance to contribute. The squeaky wheel gets the grease in these cases. It's always the same few people talking.

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

Legacy Shopify ICs and lower-level managers are excellent and generally quite nice (company's Canadian after all) Caliber of engineering talent is generally high Dev-friendly stack (Ruby/Rails) Bleeding-edge AI adoption with unlimited token budget

Cons

Recently brought over a CTO from Microsoft: he brought with him a lot of not-at-all-nice people who are highly political, frequently rude/condescending to legacy Shopifolk, and make consistently bad/dev-hostile technical decisions Bleeding-edge AI adoption is being used to justify unreasonably increased expectations
