Pros
Employees treat each other with respect, like friends and family. I can count on my fellow co-workers to do their best.
Cons
Grab your headset, get ready to do some serious calling. That's all you will end up doing. The idea of advancement after working for the company for 6 months is a joke, you'll learn this from the disgruntled individuals sitting next to you who have been there for 9 months or a year. You'll probably start off with some warm leads and then just start cold calling like crazy. I was placed into a market that had already been called on for 2 years by 9 other people. If you want to work in telemarketing, this is a great gig. They pay is low and they set the bar so high you would never reach it. If you want to be part of a startup, offer input and help develop any sort of useful strategies, you'll be thoroughly disappointed at Wayfair. The one they got going for them is a lot of young people who dont know any better and don't mind drinking the kool aid. Poor middle management, people who get in early but don't have enough experience for management positions. Shady business practice. High pressure sales teams lead to bad deals. Now that they took investments from the outside, they have no good reason to treat people nice.

Pros
Good for international students. Hires fresh talent and sponsors visa for all its employees. Good work with a lot of learning opportunities.
Cons
Low pay as compared to other competitors (Specially if you’re living in Boston! ) While most teams are really good, work culture is too bad in some of the teams to hold good talent. Very low employee happiness/satisfaction in these few teams and no appreciation for the hard work!
