Good culture, but org and priorities need work

Account executive

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Good culture, loved my peers and manager - Onsite trips to a ZG office and team bonding retreats at their HQ in Seattle - Good benefits (health, gym reimbursement, etc.)

Cons

Was unfortunately impacted by layoffs earlier this year and can only speak to Agent Software and Acquisitions - not a typical 'SaaS' sales role if that is what you're looking for. Most of your day will be spent cold calling real estate agents and brokers that have been called numerous times by other reps. Performance management expectations, at least while I was there, WAS UNREALISTIC. Miss one month and you're practically on a PIP. Miss three months in a row and you are done - if management thinks this is a sustainable way to keep talent, they are so far beyond reality. I'd recommend ZG as a company for the people and the benefits, but I heavily encourage you to ask about their performance management expectations. If it's not changed from how I described it, run.

Good but not great

Senior customer success manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits, fully remote, hours of work

Cons

Little to no increase in pay for internal promotions. Company moral is low. Easy to get lost in such a large company and can feel like just a number in their roster
