      Pros

      Zillow is growing larger and there is a noticeable change in the air. It's good though, things are becoming a little more buttoned up (in the culture sense not the dress code). I can genuinely say that I enjoy my time every day at Zillow. The people rock as a whole and my team is great. I have a fair degree of autonomy in my role. The work is stimulating and I feel like my imput is valued by both my team and the higher-ups. Our C-Levels are great too, you can tell that they genuinely care about the company and the people that work there. We're spoiled with food and fun events. Benefits are second to none. The atmosphere is that perfect balance of casual and professional. Overall, ZG is a great place to work. Oh and Spencer our CEO - He's a genuinely cool guy.

      Cons

      Pay - in salary terms, it's not quite up to market competitive but this has been discussed that we are working to get there. I hope that leadership will follow through on this b/c its the primary gripe of most employees and I think that will be instrumental in retaining talent.

      Pros

      You can make good money here.

      Cons

      In sales, job can change often. For example: I was making good money and excelling because I am a relationship Sales person. Then they changed it to where you get the sale, and instead of being able to grow that account via that relationship you just broke into, you have to pass it to an account manager and go back to cold/robo calling. You "book" of business you recive to prospect from is a lottery. I received a book of prospects/accounts that most of the were low income, or senior living properties. They don't have a budget and have a line of renter on a waitlist. No way to convince them to spend money on advertising but you still have the same quota.

      Thank you for sharing such a detailed perspective. We understand that frequent changes to roles, account ownership and business priorities can have a real impact on relationship-building and the day-to-day experience in sales. We’re glad to hear compensation was a positive part of your time at Zillow, and we appreciate you being candid about where the model and structure felt frustrating. Feedback like yours helps us better understand how these changes are experienced across teams as the business evolves.
