Pros

Executive leadership has proven results with past companies, they are now building on their passion and have a laser focus with willingness to pivot at a moments notice.

Cons

Culture. First, as with all companies the culture is dictated by the group you work with and the leadership guiding it. The production IT organization was always broken and never got the leadership and support it needed to grow into a first class organization like most other departments. Second, Zillow's focus on belonging as an employee has jumped the shark, if you want to work at a company that is trying to be a full-time support group and seemingly has an HR org second in size to sales, then this wouldn't be a "con" for you.

Thank you for your feedback on your time at Zillow Group, as you state in your Pros it is an exciting time here at ZG. The Production Operations organization has the challenging role of helping to ensure the availability of Zillow services and, as you stated, required investment to grow the organization. In the past 18 months we have increased headcount including creating new DevOps teams and new leadership roles, however I would be interested in hearing more from you on where you felt additional support/investment is needed. To your second Con, we are committed at ZG to our Core Value of “Include and Empower,” to create an environment where everyone is heard and valued, but we always have ways in which we can improve, I would welcome a discussion as to where you feel we have missed the mark. You can reach out to me directly at: tobyro@zillowgroup.com.
