Pros

Great Health benefits with premiums covered at 100%, two fully stocked kitchens with generous amounts of free snacks and drinks, Game room with ping pong tables and more, Yoga and fitness classes provided once a week and the ability to pay for a chair massage on Fridays right in the office and the option for a 4 day work week is great.

Cons

Communication among leadership team, continued training on products and cross training in other departments, feeling separate from the organization as a whole as your work schedule, and holidays do not align with the company, tech issues can be very difficult when your are super reliant on your tools to produce numbers that are used to determine your overall productivity but tech issues have seemed to be a constant issue since day one so you learn to just work with what you got. Not hiring people who are actually experienced in a call center environment is also pretty challenging.

Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful review. It has been a challenge growing the Premier Agent Concierge team so quickly (and building/scaling the tools at the same time), and a lot of the concerns you note are a result of the speed (surprising even to me!) at which we've grown. The good news is that we're making lots of progress on all fronts (tools, training, features, and more), and I would expect you to see the fruits of that work over the next few months (and it will continue to get better over time). I'm glad you're overall happy and you see this effort as "game changing" (which it is!). I'm hopeful that with the evolutions and improvements in the works (per above), you'll be even happier in the future. As always, feel free to email me directly with any additional comments or suggestions - tonys@zillowgroup.com. Thanks again!

Pros

Surrounded by young professionals who want to work hard and have fun while doing so. A great place to launch a career, but able to grow and develop within the company longterm as well.

Cons

Not a lot of time invested in training of new sales employees. More training would help to reduce the amount of turnover.

Pros

What a fantastic and forward thinking company to be at! The company culture is one of the best I had ever been at, I was so excited to make my mark going forward...a dream come true type of career...

Cons

Unfortunately the ability to go to different departments and explore different opportunities is limited And restricted based on what department you are currently located in.

Thank you for your review and the acknowledgement of the amazing culture and progressive nature of Zillow Group. At Zillow Group we pride ourselves on promoting from within whenever the opportunity and business needs align. And, we’re proud of the fact that many of our leadership, technical and new venture positions have been seeded by top talent within our ranks. I’m sorry to hear that we weren’t able to make this happen for you, but, it’s not because the opportunities aren’t there. But, we’re certainly not perfect, so I’d love to talk further on ideas you have to improve things for others going forwards. Feel free to contact me at gbland@ZillowGroup.com. Thank you again for your review and we wish you the best of luck in your new endeavors. Greg Bland, VP, Sales – Denver Site Director.
