Pros

I joined Trulia in the early days, in 2010. I fell in love with the company and I stayed in love until it became public. After IPO, focus shifted into pleasing shareholders (rightly so) but that meant that short term projects took over and the customer-value related projects were left behind. Still, it was a career changing experience, particularly from 2010 to 2012. Loved the people that worked there, although a lot of them left when Trulia was acquired by Zillow.

Cons

Any company has pros and cons. The pros usually compensated for the cons. I guess the thing I disliked the most was the short term focus the company had when I left.

Hi - thanks for your review. I'm glad you had such an amazing experience at Trulia. We continue to create once-in-a-lifetime-experiences for our employees, where people can innovate and grow in a fun and supportive environment. And one of the benefits of joining forces with Zillow it's allowed us to deliver even more customer value, and make even more long-term bets. - Paul Levine (President)
