Pros: - Great for WFH - Better than most companies for compensation and perks

Cons: - Can be hard to stay motivated remotely. - Some complain that it's not FAANG salaries.

Pros: Amazing perks, stock options, work-life balance, mostly good people. Great culture, lots of freedom to tailor your role at the company to your needs/interests.

Cons: Some people have golden handcuffs, and it shows in their attitude towards work. Some people are coasting, but other than that, it's really good.

Pros: Working from home forever. Shopify stocks

Cons: The managers are, in general, very young (below 30 years old) and inexperienced. They show clear favoritism based on if you like the same things. Reorgs happen every few months, and your team members disappear suddenly (fired) on a regular basis. Very chaotic, and things keep changing. They are so proud of this being part of the culture: 'thriving on change.' It's okay that many companies operate this way, but the rate of change at Shopify makes it very hard to keep up with the current state of things, the current way to do things, the metaphor of the month, etc. There's almost an expectation for you to spend time outside of working hours keeping up with this—listening to podcasts, watching talks, reading books. Culture is set by those who live and breathe Shopify, whose sense of work-life balance takes a back seat to their investment in the company. External hires are paid way higher than current employees. The managers and HR refused to admit this. Turnover is obviously so high, and we had to spend so much time interviewing new people, while HRs keep saying it's normal.
