Pros

My manager was really awesome and I learned a lot in a short period of time, plus I was able to travel a bunch. Overall I was able to move my career forward from this role.

Cons

So much change in a couple years. Everyone joked about how often their manager changed and teams shifted around. You never know what you were walking into quarterly. The idea of getting let go always looms over your head which creates a very toxic environment. During my time at Wayfair my managers changed a couple times (all wonderful- millennial managers), 4 major layoffs happened, and my team went from 20 people down to 2, just me and my manager. Many play favorites and point fingers when things go awry.
