Thank you for your feedback. All Product teams are moving to newer technologies, some faster than others depending on their history and feature project priorities. Good progress on building more independent services, better monitoring and more automation. If you have concerns about various tech leaders, I’d love to hear more details of the efforts and initiatives you are concerned about and how we can do better. I’m proud of what we have and continue to accomplish and our whole team, including many very talented leaders and Managers. Of course there is always room for improvement and I honestly would appreciate talking with you to hear your ideas.

Pros

Zillow has such a positive, fun, fast paced environment that is exciting to work in. They truly care about their employees. They respect you, listen to you, and appreciate you. The benefits and work life balance are excellent. The office's are beautiful and well designed. I can't say enough positive things about this company!

Cons

There aren't any concrete cons. The work is fast paced, which means changes can happen quickly, and you need to be ready and excited to work at this pace. The office environment is open, which is amazing for myself, but I do know this is challenging to other people - the positive in this is that ZG has heard this feedback and in their office space design they continue to include more small phone rooms/quiet spaces for people who work better in that environment.

Hi, great to hear! Thank you for your hard work in helping create thatt atmosphere. I agree Spencer is a keeper. The view from Seattle is pretty great, but Top Golf does have a certain charm :) Please reach out to me any time with ideas on how we can continue to progress as a department and a company. jrg@zillowgroup.com -JR Gast, VP Client Experience.
