Pros

* Some people love remote work * Really lovely co-workers * Decent benefits

Cons

TLDR Shopify is no longer the company they led us to believe. The promises that were made at the outset have been totally erased and are no longer even acknowledged if you inquire about the changes. Bullet point summary below. * management does not care about employee mental health * role will fundamentally change overnight with no context provided * have been repeatedly told to comply without questioning, chastised for voicing my opinion * opportunities for advancement are a total joke, with hundreds of applicants for a single role * pay is not on par with industry standard, and is not something they intend to improve * ongoing training is minimal regardless of features introduced * little to no job security * clear divide between product and support side of org - frontline support feels more like an outsourced call centre than an integrated part of the company * expected to support the entire internet as it pertains to business

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.

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

Continuous layoffs have led to a poor work culture.
