Process
The easiest tech screen in the world, followed by the most bored/disinterested recruiter. The tech part was okay, but arguably too easy for a senior position.
The life story round was clearly a snooze fest for the recruiter, who was practically yawning and dozing off. It gave an extremely rude vibe.
Questions
Tech screen: FizzBuzz.
Life Story round: Talk to me for 40 minutes and make sure I'm interested.

Shopify Work Experiences
- 1.0From a great to a horrible culture in 2 secondsSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesApril 16, 2024Pros: Shopifolks are, in general, great.Cons: Management has gotten worse and worse over time. Not sure if it's a general thing now, but I used to have a great manager. Then a new manager came who loved to micromanage and do busy work. They wouldn't leave us in peace to do our job. It was the most stressful experience I've had in a work environment. Micromanaging. Senior leadership is just terrible. A bunch of multibillionaires that lost touch with reality.
