I am a Senior Frontend developer based in Berlin. I just recieved two offers from Shopify and Autodesk. However, I am not sure which one to pick, the offers are almost identical when it comes to TC. Shopify offers is more in WLB benefits like Destination90, 3 weeks of flexible holidays among others. And I had a feeling that i would have beter career growth at Shopify. Any thoughts/advice from people who worked/work at one the two companies would be appreciated? Position: Senior Frontend Engineer TC: 150k EUR (including RSUs) #autodesk #shopify
What about level of roles? Fully remote vs office?
Autodesk’s culture is one of very best out there. If the TC is similar, I’d recommend joining Autodesk.
And I’ve heard from friends that culture at Shopify Berlin is not so good
Agree, Shopify has amazing culture somehow in Germany it’s absolutely TERRIBLE tho
What do you mean you only got 3 weeks of holidays? That's illegal in Germany.
That's on top of the 28 vacations days. I think those are additioonal paid time out that you can take in case you have special holidays... i am not a 100% sure how it works tbh
I see. No idea what that is either. I'm joining Shopify in 2 weeks based in Germany as well.
Can you share how long it took them to give you an offer after the final interview at shopify?
it took them only one day.. however, i have been waiting for the written contract for ten days now :/ (the recruiter told me to sit tight,but i am getting a little bit nervous)
Did you tell them you have another offer? I did so and they sent me the contract in 2 days.
OP, can you share the base of the offered TC?
@op, what's your YOE??
You can easily be unlucky at Shopify and land on a poor team. Also, it's messy. Avoid it.
Also, D90 is not as it sounds. To many it's useless. You have to be legally allowed to work at the country you're traveling to. So, just disregard that as benefit.
Will Shopify ask you to provide work auth for the destination you choose or they just don’t care as it’s not their responsibility?
