Pros

Working at Zillow means I am treated with respect, given flexibility (esp since I have a family), have probably the best benefits and perks out there, and genuinely don't dread going to work everyday!

Cons

There has been a lot of change over the last few years and acquisitions are hard. It is what it is.

Pros

Smart people Great collaboration Competitive pay and benefits Great product Work-life balance is important

Cons

Ancient architecture Sometimes there's the feature factory feel stemming from a somewhat opaque view of what goes into product development

Thank you for your comments. We are proud of the company and products we have built and I'm glad you are part of the team. After ten years of development, we do still have some remaining projects to complete as we continue the efforts to build the architecture for the future. As you probably know, many teams are building new services more independently and with more flexibility on technology. Our front end is being rebuilt around React.js and more migration to AWS is happening. Having teams work collaboratively on Velocity projects has also been a win as we can make more progress and get buy-in from product teams. Of course, there is always more to do, so I welcome the input if you have ideas you'd like to share. In terms of product planning, our quarterly planning cycle with teams, with everyone from the team included, is a great way to hear and debate the "why" behind the projects that get the green light. If you are not attending those, please ask your manager to be reminded when the next one is scheduled. There should never be any doubt as to why the projects you or your team are working on are important to the company's success as we look to build the best products for our customers. I'm always available if you have any questions. Again, thank you for your comments and your hard work. - David Beitel, CTO Zillow Group
