Pros

Over the last 4 years, I have enjoyed building world-class Money products for Shopify merchants, in a fair and healthy environment. The company is not putting insane pressure on people, and trust them to devolve themselves to the mission in the respect of the personal lives.

Cons

Frontend stack is still young at Shopify and hasn't taken yet the room it deserves. Significant investments will mitigate this.

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
