I have been following Shopify closely. It seems like Shopify is good for people who started journey there at XYZ role.
Also, I have seen lot of people became data Scientist from non stem backgrounds and even accountant and merchants assistants have become Data Scientist. Nothing wrong in it but this has caused decline in the external hiring for the roles. Believe it or not it has definitely decreased the IQ of the Data Science teams working there. Now they are only hiring senior data Scientists to lead the herd of sheep which will definitely help to increase the competency of the teams but will take a lot of time.
Lastly, After the stock appreciation. Shopify has gone cocky and not to mention their interview process is unfair and bullshit which includes life story.
I have interacted with a lot of Shopify employees and found that they aren’t strong technically. They just got those juicy positions because they have been there from a long time.
Specifically talking about their Data Science teams. Can’t comment on engineering team ( heard they are good)
Do you think Shopify is overrated?

frankly the tone and language in this speaks to why you may have been flagged in life story or the full problem solving/behavioral panel as do not pass
All the best, I'm sure you will find something better than Shopify
