Pros

Zillow Group is an absolutely incredible company to work for! The company culture is immersive and they put a heavy focus on employee satisfaction. Some of the perks are great vacation and sick time, stock options, company events, monthly happy hours, annual ZG week in Seattle and the list goes on... Zillow also makes it easy for employees at any level to communicate with their managers and executive- level employees. There is never a sense of complacency across the organization. A sense of urgency is always prevalent when it comes to innovation and ensuring that Zillow is taking into consideration their Mission Statement (build the largest, most-trusted, and vibrant home-related marketplace in the world) in every avenue of their business before implementing new ventures. Zillow Group is in a state of constant Flux and will continue to seek nothing less than perfection in its endeavor to become the industry leader for home buyers, sellers, renters and real estate agents seeking to grow their business exponentially.

Cons

Zillow is still growing at a rapid rate so there are times within the sales org where processes and compensation feel like they are not as dialed in as they should be. Things can be more streamlined and efficient to reduce stress on sales associates and their client base.

Pros

This company is great to work for. As a seasoned sales professional I can tell you this is where you want to be. Yes, there are all the perks associated with a “start up” tech company, i.e free drinks/food. However, that should not determine anyone’s evaluation of a great place to work, although those things are certainly a plus. This is a highly innovative company that is staying ahead of the times. The CEO is probably one of the most down to earth executives you will ever meet. The NYC office has really great managers, Dave and Doug, who will go through great lengths to help you succeed. The expectations may be perceived as high, but they are truly realistic and not out of the norm, especially considering the return from the company. This is an amazing place to work with a very generous compensation plan, unheard of benefits, and many extra perks. It is a two way street, expectations are high, and the rewards are unlimited. For those who push to be successful, this company is the place.

Cons

No real cons. If there was one negative it would be lack of communication in some areas when it comes to change. However, this is being addressed and the company is very honest about its need to improve on this.

Pros

Culture, benefits, cool projects and approchability of executive staff.

Cons

Hard to make as much money as a new hire if you have been here for a while in a non sales role. While the 360 annual review is amazing, for people who have moved up fast the financial opportunity is limiting over a long period of time.
