Pros: The money, initially. However, I would say the bad healthcare package and poor coverage eliminates any salary benefit if you need more healthcare than one annual checkup. As others have said, I met some brilliant and amazing people here (most have quit or been fired, some after a shockingly short period of time), and there are still a few good apples left in a mostly moldy barrel. But I haven't met one that wasn't miserable, exhausted, and suffering. From my brief experiences with the head of the new DEI department (created only after massive external and internal outcry and grossly underfunded), she meant well and was working herself to the bone despite having a Sisyphean ordeal ahead of her.

Cons: There is no end to the list. Starting from the top, the CEO, co-founder, and the vast majority of the executives at this company are terrifyingly ignorant, hyper-privileged, and out of touch with reality. The attitude from the top trickles down, creating conditions where only people who are either just as ignorant, narrow-minded, and heartless as their bosses, or who are capable of compartmentalizing to a frankly damaging degree, are able to climb the management ladder. Pockets of non-awfulness vanish as soon as a decent manager or director departs the company (and they all seem to). People who identify as women, LGBTQ+, people of color, or disabled quit or are pushed out. The ones who stay are usually trapped by their visa requirements and have families overseas who they are responsible to, so they keep their heads down and do their best to survive the intolerable. Discrimination is systemic, rife, and wholly unchecked. The leaders of this company seem to be locked in an endless cycle of self-pity that they aren't Jeff Bezos, which causes them to react to any criticism from their exhausted, beaten-down employees with defensive outrage or dismissive incomprehension. The kindest thing they could do is quit their jobs and make WF an employee-owned business, because for all their obsession with the company's nonexistent profit margins, they don't seem to know how to run it, and it doesn't even seem to make them happy at all. Oh, and aside from DEI, HR as a whole is not just completely useless; it's dangerously antagonistic to anyone lodging a complaint or dealing with a difficult situation. As with most cases, it exists to protect the company's reputation and culpability, and they do that by lying, gaslighting, and abusing workplace minorities into silence.

Pros: They used to have a Wayfair Labs program for new grads, which was a one-month camp, and then they got placed onto teams. I'm not sure if the program still exists. Beautiful office in downtown Boston, right on top of the subway/train station. The benefits are not bad.

Cons: Some teams have bad WLB. Relatively lower pay.

Pros: Great Workplace with snacks, parties, and a playroom.

Cons: Poor Employment Management: Human Resources (Talent Team) does not care about you.
