Pros

Like a lot of these reviews, the best part of working at Wayfair tends to be the people that you meet throughout the company. By and large, they are driven, focused, and brilliant, and working directly with like minded people always makes a difference.

Cons

Unfortunately, the cons of working at this company, and specifically in the Merchandising department, are plenty and widespread. Entry level analysts are considered expendable, and although given a lot of responsibility very quickly, are not valued in the slightest. That's seen in compensation, how they are treated by upper management, and therefore, the high turnover that this department sees. The amount of work that has been tasked to the few veterans is astounding, and instead of constructively planning on what to do with the backlog of projects, the veterans are told, "Do More. Increase your production," without any incentives or even a glimpse of a brighter future.
