Pros

Great environment! The people around you is what makes your day.

Cons

Random 10% let go of LO's. No real management help. 2 weeks for entry level training and then you sink or swim. Good luck getting anything to pass through the processing or underwriting teams. The ridiculous amount of overlays makes it to where your 6 loans will become 2 if you're lucky.

Thanks for the review - you're right we have a lot of fantastic people on the team. I also appreciate your comments about needing more efficiency and productivity. As I'm sure you know, we're investing heavily in people, processes and technology to help the entire team handle more loans with ease. We're starting to see these investments pay off and we have lot more work to do keep improving. - Erin Lantz, VP & GM, Mortgages

Pros

Work culture is awesome! Competitive and innovative work is happening. It’ll be interesting to see how things change in the real estate world in the near future. Snacks are great.

Cons

They used to spend a lot on company parties earlier. This is not a con. But some employees sounded happy with stock prices going up vs org spending on company parties.

You had an incredible impact at Zillow Group as a key member of our Database Administrator team. Given how important data is at Zillow Group, we couldn't do what we do without the close partnership of our DBAs and other engineers building, scaling and supporting our key data systems. We wish you well as you move to the next phase. Please don't be a stranger and keep in touch. You will be missed.
