Pros

Fun working environment, you work with a lot of young people in a collaborative space. There are good parties and pod outings with your team. If you put the time in, you should be able to hit your sales goals.

Cons

Upper management of the sales department are out of touch with day to day reality for reps. Outside hire in upper management have changed the culture for the worse and made it a more traditional corporate america sales environment.

Pros

I love Wayfair's work environment. It's a young company, with an open workspace (no cubicles, etc). Great benefits.

Cons

The pay is pretty low.

Pros

Will be extremely relaxed if you work here - zero stress Very flexible hours due to lack of interesting work There are a few strong engineering teams and people are pretty chill

Cons

Poor culture - largely homogenous and doesn't try to diversify The work isn't very interesting - this company isn't very innovative and claims to have a culture of moving quickly and breaking things, but it actually moves very slowly...and still manages to break things Management is subpar - getting promoted mostly relies on politics rather than actual skill Poor quality of engineering - not only is the codebase terrible, but there are many engineers here who are incompetent - stay away from working with them as much as possible and switch teams if you need to Compensation is far below market value - if you can work at a top tech company they will pay you far more than what you would earn here in terms of both base salary and equity
