In a leaked memo, Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke put limits on employees having side hustles, saying Shopify requires ‘unshared attention’::Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke discourages employees from side hustles in company memo, saying their jobs require their undivided attention.
No NDA, completely different sector. Stated reason was the same as in the article: “we need your full undivided attention”, followed by some bullshit that they were “concerned” I would be overworking myself. Maybe they should have reduced the work load at work if they were truly concerned, as I was pulling 60+ hour work weeks at the time.
