Room for improvement
- WLB is pretty great.
- People are really nice on my immediate team.
- Compensation is severely below market. (We've been told that we are getting paid with "growth opportunities" as part of our total compensation, and that is why monetary is low.)
- New leadership is disappointing, and the company is feeling growing pains.
- High turnover due to poor handling of the two points mentioned above.
- "Work Anywhere" is a marketing scheme that has severe limitations. For example, relocating from Canada to the USA will result in your compensation being low-balled.
- Shopify used to be a great place to work, as its compensation was competitive.
- Now it is severely lagging behind other competitors, and we are losing vital, knowledgeable staff.
- Also, if you want to foster a collaborative remote work environment, encourage on-sites.
- Teams are losing trust due to the lack of in-person interactions.
