Pros

Where to begin... I told myself I would wait a year before I wrote this review, I wanted to make sure I wasn't just in a "honeymoon" phase. Well it turned out that it is not just a "honeymoon" phase at Zillow, it keeps getting better. My favorite perks/benefits are our desks that convert from sitting to standing at the push of a button, all the free snacks drinks and catered lunches, the gym reimbursement, 401k match, summer outing(we chartered a yacht for the day), holiday weekend(company flys all the employees out to Seattle for an awesome weekend), great health care....I could keep going but I think you get the point, it's awesome. My coworkers are all very self-driven so there is no need for micromanaging. The members of the executive team are all kind, down to earth and very intelligent. I have friends in the tech industry at other companies and when we compare cultures theirs just doesn't match up. Hoping for many more incredible years with Zillow

Cons

The only cons out there are the misconceptions that agents or others in the real estate industry have of Zillow, if they truly understood what Zillow's mission was, I think they would have a better appreciation for us.

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.
