What’s up y’all. I’ll keep it brief. Shopify is interested and ready to make offer. I’m curious to hear from anyone inside their creative marketing department: Is the culture REALLY as bad as some folks make it out to be? How is the WLB? Is overtime and expectations crazy? Is the whole “40% performance” thing a part of their culture? Folks I’ve met there seem genuinely chill and overall happy. I’ve been told that they’re going through the normal/expected growing pains but any insights would be greatly appreciated. Also, are they well funded? Would hate to take the offer to only have it rescinded; job security and WLB are a massive priority. Thanks!! #shopify Update for those asking: official offer hasn’t been made, just verbal offer of around $430k TC, L8, in the creative marketing department.
Former Amazonian here: forget reputation and focus on your team and what your manager is like. I heard so many horror stories about big bad Amazon but my managers were amazing, and so my experience was great. The same will apply to Shopify, imo. Plus, damn, $SHOP at this price?
Thank you for your response. That’s what I’m thinking. It helps that a good friend co-signed the hiring manager after the fact. It’s just a lot of bad press out there. Trying to cut through the clutter.
Awesome offer! Can you share when you get the written one because many of us are waiting for our written offers right now
Yeah, definitely. Are you in a non-tech role? I.e- creative marketing?
Yes non-tech product marketing
Damn what is your YOE?
15 YOE.
Why’s the base/stock split for that TC? That sounds really competitive especially for non TC
Base 250, 500k + stock (just verbal)
Congratulations!!! So is the TC 500k or 430k?

Update: So after wrapping up my reference check this week, I just got the call that “unfortunately they can’t make an offer due to executive leadership putting a pause on the role and going a different direction due to economic climate”. Sounds like a hiring freeze / restructuring. So long, Shopify. Thanks for any insights shared.
Which team/org were you supposed to join?
I prefer not to say, since the team was pretty small and would expose anonymity. I hope you understand.
TC or GTFO !
