Great fast-paced environment to learn in
Pros
Wayfair is a high-growth company that affords lots of growth opportunities to its employees. The company has made development of a high-quality software team a top priority of the last few years. The result has been the growth of an incredible team of driven engineers, architects & managers that want to build a high-quality system. The company has made great strides in both its infrastructure and operational engineering teams, and that has allowed the company to achieve a near doubling of year-over-year growth. Engineers at the company have a great environment to challenge themselves, and learn from their driven peers. Self-sufficient engineers able to drive their own ideas forward will find a great home here.
Cons
Work-life balance is sometimes tough to maintain. The company moves very quickly, and as a result, employees have to work long hours to keep up, particularly in the run up to the busy holiday season.
