Pros

Fantastic culture, great benefits, nearly unlimited room for personal growth, and great work/life balance. Beyond building up each employee and truly investing time and efforts in them, Zillow provides an atmosphere that makes you want to be there and work hard as the company is doing the same for us. We just recently had "Engineer in Training Day" which allowed us to bring our children in to work (it was synched up with a school holiday too). There were over 250 kids from ages 3 to 18 and the event was so much fun and so well organized. My 5 year old absolutely loved it and I did too. Zillow also brings in guest speakers to help widen our views and learn what it takes to be highly successful.

Cons

Come here and try to find some, I haven't found any cons so far... pay is competitive, benefits are great, atmosphere is fun while not missing the goal of growing and improving to become a better website/product.

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.
