Wayfair

Good people in some departments.

Recruiting is good at getting folks to pull down negatives.

Most positives are from managers, surprise!

Bad, toxic people in most areas. Most areas of the business are looking to stab each other in the back to get to L5+.

Good engineers are bailing at an alarming rate. Can't retain good talent because of the BS and politics.

Want to be a tech company so bad, they even say we are a tech company that sells.

So many homegrown tools that are just bad, and no one wants to move away from broken tools. The organization is designed to burn out engineers and replace them with juniors they teach. Not in a good way.

Get your act together. Maybe show you care about people. Your outgoing officers made you the laughing stock of Boston in the tech communities.

This is why you have to pay 20 to 30% over market for people. And on that note, stop lying and saying it's because you want people there.

Maybe stop surrounding yourself with yes people and get some people with the guts to not be yes-men. Those are the people you seem to show the door.
