Zillow reviews

Management is on separate playing fields. There is no constant when it comes to everyday operations and systems, each member of management you speak to has a different answer and they tend to conflict with each other, causing issues for the employee. There are cliques within every department, which is somewhat normal, but at Zillow, it’s extreme. The management plays into the cliques, causing more problems. Favoritism is the way to win in this company. If you suck up to the right people, you will excel and move within the company, but if you make one mistake, or if someone in a management position does not like you, you will be stuck or be fired without communication. I experienced many situations where employees where fired with very little warning. The way they fire employees is absurd as well, they will pack your desk while you are in the restroom or on break, and meet you in the hall (keep in mind this is an open floor that all of the employees and management share) with your box of things and walk you out. In front of everyone. When they try to offer some reasoning for the employees dismissal, they are very hush hush and do not posses transparency. They do not “turn on the lights”. The core and heart of the company has major faults, unfortunately nothing is being done about those faults. They are simply covering them with bandaids and even offering a candy wall for your troubles. My advice; don’t give into the gimmicks, save yourself the stress of job security and the stress of pettiness; do not work for Zillow.
