Pros

- Remote position - Fair salary - Excellent benefits - my direct coworkers were 97% genuine wonderful people! - if you "drink the koolaid" you'll do just fine!

Cons

- Getting out of the guru role is damn near impossible - Incessant "goal setting" with your lead is a waste of everyone's time - the removal of the shopifessional slack channel decreased morale and removed an outlet for many (townhalls where higher ups don't actually answer questions asked by those looking to remain anonymous leaves us feeling unheard)

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

Great folks to work alongside. Work-life balance can be good, but depends upon the team/organization you are on.

Cons

Continuous layoffs have led to a poor work culture.
