Not sure about Wayfair, but chewy is an Amazon-wanna-be in terms of culture. You might as well just try Amazon.

I am at Amazon 😂

Add an option for keep interviewing

Can't change the poll now. But why do you recommend that?

Amazon AMZN234 Jun 25, 2021

Both of these are a step down from Amazon. They're good for short term bump in TC, but not for long term growth.

Wayfair is a much better household name than Chewy… plus Florida

Wayfair is in Boston, chewy is in Florida

Chewy is in Boston, Florida, Minneapolis and Seattle.

Go for Wayfair, they’re culture is “give it a shot unless your fail” I know they’re really looking for people to bring ideas to the table to help them grow. A lot of Amazon employees (Amazonians???) left Amazon to come to Wayfair.

Thanks. Are you working there currently? Can I DM

IBM uwWA54 Jun 25, 2021

Yup. You can DM

Let me know if I can help with Chewy. I faced a similar decision at one point

What did you end up doing? I’m interviewing at Chewy too for an Associate Director role

Amazon wasa Jun 30, 2021

I went with Chewy and have been happy. I felt the growth opportunity was better. I heard good things about the vp I rolled up to. The domain I went into was mature at Wayfair compared to Chewy.

Curious, how do you know that you are in the process of getting an offer from Wayfair? How long after your final interview did Wayfair get back to you?

Can I DM? Questions and Team?

Chewy is a better opportunity for the business side but they don't have the right people to execute it. Wayfair is a mixed bag but if you're looking to chill you can have a decent WL balance. If you think you can handle the stress and pressure to deliver under shitty management, then Chewy is the right answer. The stock refreshers are no joke. Be prepared to burn out worse than Amazon tho.

Both are wannabe amazon cultures

IBM uwWA54 Jun 28, 2021

Ya… that’s why everyone at Amazon is leaving for Wayfair…
