Great for engineers, but not for anyone else

Pros

Work-life balance can be great, however it all depends on the team you work on. With an open office environment, it's easy to collaborate with others but there's a somewhat obsessive focus on "being seen" as a team. The benefits and paid vacation are very good, the office is in a great location, and people are friendly and laid-back.

Cons

Compensation for creative positions is extremely low. It's an e-commerce company, and so the culture is very stats and analytics-based at every level. There's always some discord between business and creative at any company, but even more so here. People once said it's a great place to move up fast and create your own role, but I don't think that's the case anymore.

Pros

Great culture: Work hours are reasonable, employees are smart, fun, and nice Employees: Some of the smartest internet marketers and engineers/developers in Boston. You are lucky to work with them. Experience: Few, if any, ecommerce companies are as sophisticated as Wayfair, and almost none of the east coast. You will learn more than your peers in other industries.

Cons

- Pay can be a bit below average - Process by employees are promoted can be unclear / employee review system was minimal - Still a growing/evolving company: A start-up trying to figure its way to insert more processes while still moving fast.
