Pros

Amazing work environment. Culture is deliberate and smart for the long-term. Neat industry and tech. Good people.

Cons

A few people are being crushed by incompetent engineering management. It is questionable that parts of the organization can scale. The crushed people are in the terrible position of feeling like they are wasting their time and skills but don't want to leave because they love Shopify.

Pros

- Loads of opportunity within the organization, everywhere, if you are bold enough to blaze the trails - Lots of support given to employees through resources (conference budget, development library, talent acceleration coaches) - Probably depends on your manager, but on the whole there just isn't micro-managing; instead, there is a lot of trust placed in people - We are really well supported from a personal standpoint as well - yoga, meditation, bike tuneups, great food + drink, great health benefits + more

Cons

- If you can't operate with uncertainty and chaos and don't have the tools to seek support internally at Shopify so you can get better at this, then it might be a tough place to work - The framework is provided, but you really can't wait for someone to tell you what's next...(which is actually more of a pro, but it's a follow up to the last point so I listed it here)

Pros

At Shopify, you are given the freedom to be yourself at work. There is very little red tape or barriers to prevent you from doing your best work. You are constantly being pushed to learn and grow both professionally and personally. I can honestly say I have learned more in the 3 years I've worked here than in the last 10 anywhere else. Employees are valued based on impact and there is a ton of opportunity for career growth.

Cons

I will never be able to work anywhere else.
