Vantaggi

The web projects I worked on where fun with very ambitious and collaborative clients. The creative team was very supportive and everyone encouraged and challenged each other to grow and learn new skills.

Svantaggi

It was disappointing to be let go the way that I was. I was randomly given a 2 week notice after a huge wave of new hires, including new designers. When I started there was a huge wave of about 15-20 new hires, they flew out the entire company so that we can all meet in person and to discuss goals. During that weekend, management had plans/ambition to keep growing the operations. Few months later, I was told the company hasn't been able to close on sales and they no longer have the financial capacity to employ me.

Vantaggi

- Strong South American Dev and UX Talent - Large development team - Strong pipeline of Shopify Plus clients

Svantaggi

The management is an absolute disaster. There is no company culture—employees barely know each other, and there are almost zero interaction points. It’s a revolving door of hires and firings, with no real strategy or support in place. I was hired to replace someone who was let go, only to be let go myself. The person hired to replace me? Also let go. It’s a pattern. They have no grasp of capacity planning, and onboarding is practically nonexistent. Instead of setting people up for success, they push them into chaotic, unsupported roles and then blame them for "performance issues" when things inevitably go wrong. The agency itself operates like two separate companies, and one half runs on a shady deal within Shopify’s partner program—a loophole they exploited when the agency first started. There are multiple owners (four, I think?), but you’ll rarely see them. One was on my only 30-minute interview and then ghosted entirely, except for weekly meetings where he sat in the background with his camera off, contributing nothing. Unless you’re one of the born-on-third-base owners or a dev, this place isn’t a long-term solution. If you value stability, culture, or even basic managerial support, stay far away.
