Pros

Good perks and above average salaries

Cons

The design team leadership has no clue how to run a design org. They have a bread a culture around favoritism and where no one is allowed to question authority. They prefer fancy presentations and smooth talking over actual work. So, if you are good at making powerpoint decks and can talk about it over and over again, Zillow is the right place for you.
