Great people to work with and a great culture.

Constant changes without beta testing the changes... makes it hard to do your job when the site is down all the time.

Corporate America in a startup shell

Pros

In Europe, Wayfair teams are very young, and from very different backgrounds and cultures. It seems to be a lot of opportunities and we see new hires all the time.

Cons

But employees are often considered as commodities, being disposed of whenever the management wants to for reasons sometimes unrelated to performance. The management has been mainly imported from the US, and they apply their style in Europe without any consideration for the European roots of 90% of the emplyees, leading to huge cultural idiosyncrasies. The company is rigged with obscure processes and a form of nepotism. With all that, Wayfair brought the worst of corporate America in Europe
