Shopify’s salaries are nowhere near competitive. No clue where you got that from.

I encourage the downvoters to provide evidence to the contrary.

Maybe for Canada.

I say this as a Canadian living in Ottawa, their salaries are not good.

They used to give a pretty good stock package but it lead to chaos in the company when the stock went down 10x and people were paid 50% stock.

Yep, you're better off working for a US-based company with a presence in Canada.

The non-FAANG big and mid names offer dramatically higher comp than Shopify, and it's pretty sad.
