Truly one of Denver's best places to work!

Pros

Zillow Group is consistently on several "best places to work" lists and for very good reasons. I have been with several organizations throughout my professional career and Zillow Group has hands-down done more for me than anywhere else I've worked. First off, the culture is second-to-none. From free food and beverages on a daily basis to incomparable perks and bonuses, Zillow Group truly has an amazing culture. The leadership, starting with Spencer Rascoff on down, the management, and the employees make it a truly great place to work! I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic career opportunity! I can honestly say I look forward to going there each and every day and contributing to my team and the organization as a whole!

Cons

Being a tech-based company, you must constantly change and adapt to stay ahead of the competition. Our CEO, Spencer says that if you get complacent, you will get blindsided by the competition. With that said, change is the only constant at Zillow group. If you are flexible and adaptable, it is a very fun, exciting, and challenging atmosphere, but if you prefer the status quo and do not do well with change, it would most certainly not be a good fit.

Pros

There are some amazing people there. I love coming to work to see them. I love the work I'm doing- when I get to do it.

Cons

The upper level management seems to exist on its own island, far away from anything else. Their decisions lately have seemed arbitrary or poorly communicated. They spend more time worrying about what each other thinks then thinking about helping or working with or managing their employees, which leaves most middle management feeling a little aimless and frustrated, which of course trickles down. The highest level management seems to move too fast and lack focus, which leads me and others to think they are making fear-based decisions, which is bad for morale. Feedback is also given in a condescending, confrontational manner, which is really not necessary.

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)
