Wayfair’s CEO has an end-of-year message for employees of the online furniture company: Don’t shy away from doing more work and blending your work with your life.
“Winning requires hard work. I believe that most of us, being ambitious individuals, find fulfillment in the joy of seeing our efforts materialize into tangible results,” CEO Niraj Shah said in a note to employees earlier this month celebrating the company’s recent success, and which a company spokesperson confirmed to CNN. “Working long hours, being responsive, blending work and life, is not anything to shy away from. There is not a lot of history of laziness being rewarded with success.”
Yeah, I’ve found nicer stuff there at affordable prices vs most furniture stores and it’s better than going round Amazon. There’s always 5 stores with identical photos selling what looks like the same thing and reviews are high for one and low for others so it’s kind of hard to know what you’re buying. Finding stuff takes a fair amount of work but most of what I’ve gotten is good.
But every now and then the box arrives and a corner is ripped off so random parts have fallen out in transit and others are scratched. Wayfair is generally good about resolving issues like that but it’s a pain to deal with.
