Pros

Great Benefits! Lots of play, left one wondering if line management took the work day seriously.

Cons

Poor start salary, subpar training, management support was minimal as training needs were obvious - solutions were to have rookies training rookies and one was in trouble when needing additional training. Training consisted of power point reviews, did not even include systems overviews and readily available supplier systems training (on-boarding systems review).

Pros

Snack wall sometimes stocked, cool to see inside of a growing e-commerce giant

Cons

opaque/no internal growth prospects (only promoted when someone else gets fired or quits), too many people work there to cultivate any real company culture, regardless of previous employment or education to Wayfair you are simply a cog in the machine and HR will place you wherever you're needed regardless of your interest in that position,

Pros

Fun, casual, startuppish culture. Senior management is engineering-focused. Plenty of opportunity to move around, and up, to a degree. Friendly environment for women and LGBT folk.

Cons

Very Few holidays (4) Mostly fresh grads -> very cliquey (and promotions seem to be based on bro status) Working from home is discouraged. No family leave.
