Culture and benefits at Wayfair
Culture overview
You should love where you work. That’s why we offer a fun, dynamic, and diverse work environment where casual dress is encouraged and corner offices—or any offices—are nowhere to be found. Everyone is a hands-on contributor and empowered to take calculated risks, embrace ownership, and take every opportunity to grow personally and professionally. Empowered Employees It is widely known at Wayfair that our success starts with our people. At all levels, team members are encouraged and empowered to take on new roles and challenges at the company, ensuring that every promising player can move throughout the organization to grow and define their careers. Wayfair's team is known to be curious, innovative, and eager to solve complex problems, which is why the organization places a strong emphasis on learning and development. A Collaborative Culture Wayfair promotes a flat, transparent culture and their office space is reflective of that. Regardless of title or tenure, everyone works together to achieve the same objectives and is aware of all imminent and upcoming company goals. Similarly, team members are encouraged to voice their opinions, share their ideas, and drive results—in this way, the company is able to foster a truly collaborative culture. In addition, all Wayfair locations boast an open floor plan, which means there are no offices for anyone—including the CEO. Their open-seating floor plan fosters communication and collaboration, which is reflective of the company’s commitment to transparency and inclusivity. Entrepreneurial by Nature Wayfair promotes a test and learn environment and entrepreneurial culture. Leaders believe that the next big idea can come from anywhere, so they prepare employees to pivot their focus at a moment’s notice when an incredible idea or growth opportunity presents itself. The team finds this innovative spirit inspiring and enjoys being able to learn first-hand how to make things better as the company grows.
