Pros

Z Seattle office is such a fun place to work . Everyone has amazing character, positive personalities and really just want to help. The inside sales org offers opportunity to make a lot of money . The executives are people you are proud of and they inspire you to work harder. And the benefits, so many amazing benefits.

Cons

Zillow has been working hard to be more diverse and it is apparent in most of the department's, except for inside sales. It is still very much a boys club. Even though half of the sales staff are women, almost all the managers are men. All of the General Managers are also men. Being a women means you have to work twice as hard to get half the recognition. I have been at Zillow 2 years and I have not seen a single women promoted . The "boys" also treat the environment with a very "frat like" attitude. You must have very thick skin to survive the environment.

Thank you for your feedback. I am glad you think Zillow Group is a fun place to work. Here at Zillow Group we value gender parity and are always working hard to improve equality in the workplace. Our sales organization has women in both manager and senior leadership roles across all offices. In addition, our leadership and sales roles are open for all to apply and interview. To further instill a culture of transparency, we've recently looked into our gender pay gap and found that female employees make $1.01 for every dollar earned by male counterparts. We are also supporting our diversity & inclusion initiative by rolling out training around leadership development and unconscious bias. I value your feedback and my door is always open to discuss this further. Chris Lowe Senior Director - Premier Agent Sales, Seattle

Pros

A lot of transparency from leadership, they treat you like adults so you feel empowered in the work that you do. Great work life balance and really cool in office environment with great views of the city, quiet areas to work away from your desk, a lot of snacks and monthly catered lunches. The company focuses a lot on community and creating a sense of home is core. They care about feedback (both from employees and consumers) and take action on continuously improving based off of that.

Cons

Its hard to please everyone, but they do they best they can to address major issues - no complaints from me!
