Pros

I only recommend this job to any prospective employee who wants to work while biding their time for something better, for there are far better opportunities that lie outside Wayfair--I will not recommend this job to a friend or family member. Wayfair does have a wonderful HR team that I had the pleasure of working with through the time I needed off work for surgery, however, it was unfortunate that this wonderful HR team had to be the bearer of Wayfair Corporate's message that I was to be terminated for needing so much time off (I month) for surgery and recovery, a surgery that if I didn't have it done, would impair my work-ability not only working at Wayfair, but any job I would work.

Cons

Semi-monthly pay--this translates into not getting paid for overtime as one would on a weekly or bi-weekly pay frequency; clever loopholes to not have to pay overtime wages makes for very disgruntled employees, which is one of a myriad reasons why Wayfair is starting to have a turn-over rate that is tantamount to that of Amazon's. I could go on an on, I could describe a litany of what is wrong with Wayfair, but save all that and know this one thing, dear reader: Wayfair Corporate cares nothing for their base-level employees, no matter if one has exemplary performance and is a profound asset to a department's entire process, or even has exemplary attendence and promptness showing up for work everyday, Wayfair Corporate cares nothing for their base-level employees, for that I can personally vouche for.
