Pros

Fantastic training, management team, and environment. Ample opportunity to move around the company. Career oriented sales organization. Innovative and committed to growth.

Cons

Comp changes constantly in the wrong direction. The sales organization beat expectations and they were rewarded with twice the competition and a worse compensation plan. They gave us a base pay raise but the commission pay out has been cut in halve over the last 3 years. There is a inverse incentive to become a senior account manager or executive.

Pros

The work environment/culture is amazing. People are positive and have fun at work, while working hard. Management expects a lot out their teams. For those that are willing to work hard, have a great team mentality and attitude, and quickly adapt to change there is massive opportunity for financial earnings and career growth. I could not be happier with my role here. I leave work every day and week feeling good about my opportunities and contributions to the greater whole. I highly recommend Zillow as a career path. Thank you!!

Cons

Communication from management can sometimes lack clarity. Some of this has to do with just how quick things move and evolve here. Continue to focus on delivering new updates, training, etc. in digestible formats.

Pros

I've only been at Zillow for 6+ weeks but I don't have enough great things to say about my experience and the Zillow Group as an enterprise. - I started with a 2 week onboarding agenda given to me day 1. This really helped with a quick ramp up and set a promising foundation. - My team is very supportive. They make me feel truly appreciated. They have been by my side as a cheerleader but are also first to jump in when I voice for help and advice. - My management, the VPs, and even our department Chief, have gone out of their way to ensure I have everything I need to be successful. They consistently remind me that they are here in any capacity needed to support my role and success. It is really refreshing to see an employer trying so hard to foster their employees and empower them to grow beyond their means. Reflecting on my past 6 weeks and overall impression as a new hire, joining Zillow has been a great decision for my career growth.

Cons

I can't really think of any to be honest. The benefits are great. The people are great. My manager is great. The work is fun and challenging.
