Pros

Management team is long term focused. Not distracted by shareholders or competition. They have a commitment to hiring the best people and cutting bait with those who are't big fast thinkers.

Cons

Not many. Teams generally work well together and are highly collaborative. Company is getting big with the integration of Trulia and execution is largely the biggest risk.

Thank you for the great review! I'm very glad that you feel the leadership team is not overly focused on the near term or on competition. You are correct. We are focused on building a very significant company over the LONG term, and that means making big investments which won't pay off for a long time. On the topic of maintaining a strong corporate culture and one which empowers great people, I actually wrote about this today in Fortune: http://fortune.com/2015/06/04/spencer-rascoff-keeping-your-best-employees/

Cons

felt like I was in high school again. I also noticed a trend of them getting rid of all the colored people. Felt like I was being harassed weekly by my team lead!

Thank you for saying I am cool - I appreciate that. But the rest of what you wrote is very concerning and upsetting to me. We have many talented people at Zillow from all different ethnic, cultural, religious and racial backgrounds. I will discuss your concerns with the team here and see if we can possibly learn from your experience (specifically, I mean the comment that you felt that managers played favorites). Sincerely, Spencer

Pros

Before working at Zillow as Blog Editor, I spent time getting to know them through blog interviews, spending time at conferences and more. Rich Barton's previous experience must have given him a tremendously keen eye for talent. Every person I came in contact with impressed me at all levels. I had the opportunity to work briefly with Zillow Group's CEO, Spencer Rascoff. He is a consummate professional and THE most genuine of any person I have met in any C suite. They care deeply about their clients and the consumers that use their products.

Cons

Like any organization comparable to Zillow, I am certain there are some things that someone would see as a negative. I honestly can't think of any.
