Wayfair reviews

Work at Home opportunities, benefits are amazing, you get free swag all the time and the Wayfair culture is so much fun. Also great opportunities to work your way up in the company.

I evaluate any job on the three P's: projects, people, pay PROJECTS - so many cool projects! visual search, NLP, marketing auctions, pricing elasticities, recommendation systems, and the list goes on. the data is incredible and the computational resources/support are abundant. you really get to focus on the algorithms as opposed to the engineering which is nice imo. PEOPLE - an incredible and diverse crowd. people from all academic backgrounds. lots of phds (probably 70% or so), some extremely talented and driven undergrads. a very knowledgeable crowd, but still humble and willing to coach others and be-coached by others. a really healthy acceptance of people regardless of their nationality, religion, political views, age, etc. PAY - I had a competing offer that come in from a company in Seattle that was about 10k higher after bonus/equity are factored in. That difference is smaller now since the company's stock value has doubled and that's part of your compensation if you work full-time. I'd rather live in Boston than Seattle so here I am.
