A workplace that reflects our values.
No matter who you are, Wayfair is a place where you can bring your whole self. We know that our unique perspectives make us stronger, smarter, and well positioned for success.
Our Commitment
At Wayfair, the underpinning of our commitment to DEI is the belief that, “We are eclectic – designed for all.” There is no vision without variety, and there is no success without the celebration of our individual strengths. In our pursuit for equity, we do our best to tailor everyone’s experience with us – to help each unique individual feel at home at work.
Diversity
What if every room looked the same? What if we could only decorate with one color? There is no vision without variety. And there is no success without the celebration of our individual strengths.
Equity
We are not just one thing to one person. Wayfair is a company fit for all. We do our best to tailor everyone’s experience with us, to help each unique individual feel at home, at work.
Inclusion
Everyone should feel seen, heard, and considered when they work with us. We welcome new ideas, different perspectives, and we love when people express their personal styles. We are eclectic – designed for all.
We seek to create a culture of belonging for our employees through our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion. We foster an inclusive and engaged global community through education and awareness programming, by building systems and policies that support and enhance a culture of inclusion and recognition, and by bolstering community organizations and partnerships that help create a more equitable society.
What’s New
In celebration of Global Volunteer Month, Wayfair’s Social Impact Team recently hosted a volunteer “pitch” event where four teams of Wayfairians came together to help two local nonprofits: Housing Families and Fenway Community Development Corporation. Each of these organizations share our belief in creating a sense of home for all, and in partnering together, we knew we could confidently make a positive impact in our local community.

A Snapshot of our DEI Infrastructure
Certified Interview Program
Our Certified Interview Program aims to give every candidate a fair and equitable interview experience. In 2021, we updated our interviewer training program and provided coaching based on candidate feedback around interviewer behavior. The program also includes behavioral interviewing and bias training. We’ve seen a 73% completion rate for all the interviewers in this first year of the assigned training, as well as improvements in interviewer behavior scores based on candidate feedback. Our 2022 objective is to further build out the Certified Interview Program to drive accountability.

Connect With Community
Affinity and Employee Resource Groups (AGs/ERGs) create brave, inclusive spaces for community building, networking, and professional development and support all Wayfairians’ continued learning about diversity, equity, and inclusion. ERGs are employee-created and employee-led with support from the Wayfair Talent team.
What Our People Are Saying
Amanda, Women+@Work ERG
“One of the biggest honors of my career has been the opportunity to co-lead the Women+@Wayfair Employee Resource Group of Boston. Each day, I am inspired by the incredible talent, resilience, and grit of women+ at Wayfair. Our goal is to provide a meaningful framework and forum for the women+ communities at Wayfair to celebrate, learn, and amplify action.”
Patrick, WayOut ERG
“When I joined Wayfair, there was no formalized group for the LGBTQ+ community in Berlin. I found some like-minded people who were excited to start WayOut Berlin together. Now, a year later, we’re 100+ members and growing!”
Amber, WayBlack ERG
“I love being a lead for WayBlack Bryan. This gives us the opportunity to speak to colleagues around the company, educating them on the importance of respecting all of the talent that Black/African Americans bring to the company. Being able to use both of my passions of advocating for Black people and teaching/training our allies the best way to help their teams grow and adapt makes my career fulfilling, and I am so thankful for that.”
