Which makes me really happy and hopeful. A Shopify employee who lost her job in its mass layoff had 25 offers on LinkedIn just 2 days... — read more
PIP survivors
I am not on PIP, but all the people I know who were, are no longer in this company. It seems that a miracle should happen here for someone to survive PIP?
Getting laid off would be a relief for me
Whatever the severance pay is, I would rather be laid off than survive, considering that I think it will only get worse here. I don't believe that anyone thinks it will get better?
Lack of true leadership
I am disgusted. Are they actually trying to blame us for everything bad that happens in this company? Can they ever take responsibility, at least partially? This indicates the lack of good leadership, without which, I'm afraid, the company will... — read more
If you are not getting the full severance...
A quick update... For all those laid off from Shopify that didn’t get the full 16 wks severance that is being offered to everyone else.... If you are still within 4-8 weeks of this layoff... Consider filing a complaint with the employment act?... — read more
How will it happen?
Are people already being notified? Is everybody going to know now or will they spread it out and have us worry and stress over it for who knows how long? This isn't just 50 people (not that I'm minimizing their layoffs) but we're talking thousands... — read more
We knew this was coming
After the last set of cuts, everybody should have seen this coming. Things are only getting worse, not better. I'd like to think this will be the end of it but even after the 10 percent is cut I still won't be able to relax. Maybe being laid off... — read more
10% or 10,000 To Be Laid Off
So much for 'family'... If you are in Sales and Support, good luck... Tobi will fix it, hahaha...
Get out if you can
If I had learned I was laid off I would have been overjoyed. Shopify has changed so much in a short time that I can't even recognize it as the company I used to enjoy working at anymore. The culture has shifted and is now a toxic mess of... — read more
Shopify delays compensation overhaul, lays off 50, as fallen stock price complicates plans
Shopify Inc. is putting off a compensation overhaul that would give its employees more choice in how they are paid, as the Ottawa-based company addresses the challenges posed by its fallen stock price and the persistent sell-off pummelling the... — read more
Does anyone know what the packages are like when Shopify lays people off?
Is there any place I can look it up? Does the company provide special extended medical coverage allowances (extra months of coverage, for example) or am I being too optimistic? I'm just trying to figure out what kind of support the company provides... — read more
Layoffs have been ongoing
It was mentioned before but I'll say it again. These layoffs have been ongoing for several months and they are much larger than most think. The latest round got media attention for some reason but it's far from the only (or even largest) round... — read more
50 employees were laid off yesterday
I'm not sure if there will be more today but I guess we'll find out soon enough.
Layoffs are happening in summer 2022
R&D, Shop, Revenue & Operations, Shipping. They're all being silently let go. Pay attention on LinkedIn when you see more people "open to work".
We are still hiring
I do not think there will be layoffs. I think the market will start to recover and things will improve for everyone. A lot of people wiht options got screwed, it's not a happy sight.
Deliverr / Engineering Layoffs
Will Shopify have layoffs on the engineering team side (this is in light of what happens as Deliverr gets acquired by Shopify - the stock price is dropping and there seems not to be any bottom)
Earnings forecast doesn't look good
Is anybody else worried results will be bad enough to cause layoffs?
