Hi friends, I'm joining Wayfair in a month and I'm looking for housing options. I have a car and need your suggestions regarding housing. Can you please share your knowledge around the topic? To contribute to the community, My salary details are as follows: 125k+10kbonus+15kstocks per year for 4 years Thanks a lot for your help. I'm very new to Boston and any help is appreciated.
You are near prudential tower so you can take a train - green or ornange line . Check out apartments near train . You don’t want to drive to a subway station or to work .
Which team will you be joining? I’d recommend either Somerville, Brookline or Roxbury. Just prioritize being close to the T. What’s your yoe?
Thanks for your suggestion. I'm joining Sales engineering and I have about 4.5 years of experience
Get a map of the public transportation including commuter rail. Look for apartments close to stops. Parking around coplay is about $400 a month.
Montejae at Assembly Row has a wayfair discount, PM for details. Also across the street on the orange line, like a 20 minute commute in.
Do Wayfair employees still get this discount?
Are u saying they give you 15000 RSU a year. I find it hard to believe . If the stock is on average 100 dollar per unit which it is not (150$ at this very moment) you are making 1.5 million a year on stock alone . Unless I am missing something!!!!!
Haha- I think he meant 15k worth stock per year
Ok that makes sense lol 😆😆😆
Jamaica Plain is nice and mostly affordable. My commute is about 20 mins door to door on the orange line.
Do you have any specific apartment complex in mind that we can look at ?
Check out the AVA Back Bay. It’s connected to the Prudential Center, which is connected to Copley Place by a bridge. You’ll never need to go outside to get to work during the winter
Any suggestions for 1BHK under 2K with 20-30 min commute? Couldn't find online that fits this criteria
Isn’t it tough to park your car on the street in Somerville, Cambridge, etc? They have street-cleaning days and snow-removal days
Yes it’s annoying if it doesn’t snow , if it snows it’s a bit more annoying . Try to get a place with off road parking
Alright comrade. I've added the details
First fix that salary my friend. I believe they hired you for SE2 role. Ask for 135 base and sign on bonus. More RSU
