Strong pay and benefits overshadowed by high pressure environment

Mid market account executive

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Competitive base pay and valuable company benefits and perks.

Cons

I started with 30 new hires, and when I was fired, there were 15 people left. They use a cohort-based hiring model with performance-driven retention. Employees are expected to achieve at least 70% of their monthly quota. If performance falls below that threshold, they are placed on a performance improvement plan (PIP). Failure to recover and meet quota expectations within three months may result in termination.

Zillow Response

Thank you for your review. We're glad compensation and benefits stood out as positives during your time here. We also hear you that the pace and pressure of a sales environment can be a lot, especially early in a role. Transparency and support throughout that process matter, and your feedback is a reminder of where we can keep improving.
