      Great environment, lots of opportunity. Not perfect of course. - Software Developer Shopify Employee Review

      Pros

      - good culture; people genuinely care and are willing to help - values and sponsors personal growth, albeit self-directed - knowledge is shared freely, lots of interesting projects to observe - senior leadership appreciates engineering (CEO was former Rails core contributor!) - fully remote work, with flexibility to work from other countries - supports open source (e.g. has teams dedicated to improving Ruby and Rails)

      Cons

      - at times, a little chaotic as the company is willing to make big changes quickly - at times, feels like a lot of reading to gain context and syncing up with other teams - technical challenges depend on the team / projects you join

      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
