Anyone work for Shopify? I’m expecting an offer sometime this week and am wondering how people like it. Also, I’m a US citizen - does that complicate things from a tax perspective since they’re based in Canada?

Shopify is awesome. Amazing GSD culture and still feels a lot like a startup energy wise but with a lot more resources to be successful. No tax complications. Shopify has US entities so it’s like working for any other US company. Happy to chat!

Technically you should pay taxes where your office is located, no?

I've heard it's a fantastic place to work. Taxes shouldn't be too hairy of a situation. Listen to Shopify 1 :). The only other thing I've heard is that it can be harder to grow/get major TC rise. They'll know more!

You’ll have to file both returns. Put in a simplistic way, you pay taxes in Canada and pay incremental amounts, if any shows up from the US returns.

Nope. That’s not how any of this works at all.

Supposed to be a good place to work, and it's certainly stable! And I believe you always pay taxes based on where you live, not where the company is based.

I’m not sure if this happens to you, I’m constantly intimidated and feel judged by white men and women and/or people born in the US for having a strong foreign accent in the US. Nobody says that to my face, but I can see it in people’s actions. This has severely affected my confidence and I focus more on the way I pronounce some words rather than the content. How do I battle this situation? Would definitely like both perspectives.

This may be an unpopular opinion.

But I think it's kinda shitty that when FAANG people get laid off, everyone feels bad for them and they get so many resources to get rehired, but the same is not true for people that get laid off at smaller lesser known organizations.

Like those FAANG people will be fine, they got generous severance packages. The people who actually need help often get overlooked or are forgotten.
