Pros

Excellent benefits for parents, growth opportunities are and will be available as the company continues to reorg. regularly, work from home friendly with compensation for office supplies and setting up your WFH environment.

Cons

Leadership changes have shifted what is important to the company which is no longer the people working there. Mindset of leadership has shifted to money first and to join them or leave. Hard to see when I experienced a very different work environment. Pay dropped dramatically as well with our most recent reorg in August. I'll be looking for other options which is unfortunate because I really used to love working for Zillow. I'm not proud of the company anymore or where it is going.

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review. It is good to hear you saw value in the company benefits and felt the work/life balance was good. We put a lot of thought into both and much of what we develop to support both is driven by employee feedback. Regarding human resources and our leadership team, it is concerning to hear you feel both exhibit less than quality support. Both our leadership teams and human resources team focus quite a bit of effort in fostering an environment that enables our teams to do their best work. I am curious to hear how your experience conflicts with that focus. Any insight you can share is welcome. Regarding your advice, Zillow Group has an array of amazing opportunities and a keen focus on career development. I have to say anyone who is serious about their career and wants to grow is well positioned to do just that with Zillow Group. I appreciate you taking the time to submit your thoughts and if you have more reach out to stevec@zillowgroup.com to share. Best of luck with your future endeavors. Steve Capezza - Vice President, Zillow Premier Agent Sales
