Vantaggi
Shopify is an amazing company to work for in terms of career growth, but it is heavily dependent on which team you are in and who your manager is and wether you are lucky to be able to work for a team at least for one year without changing your team and manager.
Svantaggi
Leadership not being honest with the employees has been a major issue that I've seen. Over time you loose your trust as well. for instance they canceled a Intern Vancouver gathering pretty close to the event and instead of just saying the acua problem (financial) they said it's pretty busy now and everyone should focus on work. What is the outcome of 3 days more an intern really? They had every right to spend their money how they wanted but they just can not be dishonest like this and making excuses. The other major issue that I've seen is that they keep changing and reorganizing teams. Changing manager for 6 time in less than 2 years has been harmful for career growth.
