Pros

People outside the department I worked in we're amazing. They were supportive, professional, and just all around amazing people. The work load is a bit overwhelming at times but then you have slow times as well so it balances out.

Cons

In the department I was in I felt like the leads were awful people. There were obvious moments were I was treated grossly unfair to the point other people in other departments noticed. I felt harassed and bullied at work. The managers and many people knew of this but did nothing to stop it. I feel like the company shouldn't be judged by a particular set of people and it's unfortunate that this is my out look on the company now as many people within shopify are amazing. The reason I feel like the company is to blame is due to the reason that managers were aware and did nothing to stop it. I feel like I did everything in my power to alert the people in charge of the gross mistreatment I was put under. It was to the point that at one time my lead personally attacked my character and laughed about me openly with another co worker.

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

High comp and AI forward. One of the few remote places left.

Cons

Upper management basically openly disdains the “working class”, and it’s a major jostle among the VP and Director level for currying favor with the CEO. The investment in AI tooling is smart but also the C suite majorly suffers from AI psychosis, it’s embarrassing, actually.
