Pros

Zillow is a great company and you are surrounded by some of the smartest, most knowledgable people.

Cons

Unfortunately with the growth of the company due to Zillow Offers, the amount of redtape has grown exponentially and there is several layers of bureaucracy to go through to get anything done.

Thanks for taking a moment to share your feedback about working at Zillow, and I’m glad in general you had a good experience here! The company has seen explosive growth, which can lead to more coordination and process – especially as we move into lower margin businesses and direct financial impact to our customers. That said, I'm always open to suggestions on optimizing our processes so that our teams can get the work done with minimal interruptions. If you're willing, I'd love to connect with you 1x1 to dig in on where you felt things were moving slowly or areas that could be improved. Feel free to email me at jeremyw@zillow.com to set up a few moments to chat. -- Jeremy Wacksman, President, Zillow

Pros

I absolutely love Zillow and working for this company. The people here are amazing and the culture is great, as well as unbelievable health benefits. I love how there is a focus on ensuring employees have ample opportunity for growth, development and learning. We also get a lot of vacation time which is nice, as Zillow really cares about it's employee's Work/Life balance. I have every intention of staying and growing with this awesome company.

Cons

I have nothing but positive things to say about this organization.

Pros

Strong focus on personal development Living the core values Transparent, effective leadership

Cons

Compared to other tech companies, you'll spend a lot more time dealing with messy people data. That's not a con for me, but is a con for others

Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback, and I'm so happy that you so readily see our core values demonstrated in daily work life here. We've definitely found that personal development, particularly skill development, is highly valued by our analytic teams given the fast pace of tech and methodological change. While we do a lot of such development already in a variety of ways (tech reviews, paper reads, learning academies, focused training on Spark/Python, hackweeks, leadership/mgr training, etc.), we'll be doing even more in 2019 and beyond (as you've probably heard via our team meetings). I'm not entirely sure of what the "messy people data" that you refer is, but please let me know if something is messier than it should be or if there's a better way to be tackling problems in your particular area here at Zillow. We're always open to new ideas! Thanks again and happy to have you on the team. - Stan Humphries
