Pros

Incredible vibe/atmosphere all around. Shopify really values long term growth, they happily sponsor any books you feel will help you improve either personally or professionally as a software engineer. They focus very heavily on culture, insane office. Different menu everyday and sushi biweekly! They provided housing too and additionally took us out for an intern retreat (Mt. Tremblant). Made tons of great friends, got really close with the other interns and full-times. Would come back.

Cons

Didn't have any complaints, had a great overall experience.

Pros

- Kind and talented co-workers - Generous AI token spend - Fairly transparent company (has been getting less transparent over the years) - Lots of opportunity for impact

Cons

- Product management discipline is quite lacking since the new CTO joined - Microsoft culture is adding more chaos and stress, and causing projects to actually go slower - Managers are afraid to tell the truth to Mikhail about the loopholes in engineering; they just want to look good, so they rush their teams to ship crap - Top engineering leaders are moving out of management roles or leaving the company - Tobi used to be far more involved in ensuring a high engineering bar, but seems to have handed over the reins to the new Microsoft regime
