From a great to a horrible culture in 2 seconds
Shopifolks are, in general, great.
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.

Trust your engineers and don't keep giving them busy work.
