After reading this, and downvote me because maybe I'm old or something, but I read this and it sounded like someone who thought very highly of themselves, has limited work experience, has limited experience in technology but expects the company to work around their needs. Naively this individual decided (rightly or wrongly) that after 5 months he couldn't possibly learn anything from working at a company like this and bounced.
Point they said this: "This practice suggests that perhaps the company is scaling faster than resources safely allow."
If you do any research at all about Shopify their growth over the last two years has been unreal - their whole operation has been scaling rapidly - infrastructure, people and HR. Of course some of their systems are overly stressed. What does scaling faster than resources "safely" allow even mean?
