Tobi Lutke says in a memo circulated to staff that Shopify’s mission to build world-class software for millions of merchants requires their unshared attention
is discouraging staff from taking on side gigs that divert their attention away from the company.

Lutke says occasional side hustles like teaching a weekend yoga class or coaching kids soccer once or twice a week aren’t the kind of activities he’s concerned about.
