Pros

Zillow is truly a fast-paced, innovative and exciting company to work for! This company takes its core values seriously (based around teamwork, visibility, empowerment, ownership, etc), which is exactly why their interview process is so detailed and sometimes lengthy. The whole process took me about a month and a half (from application to offer), so stay persistent if it feels like the right move for you!

Cons

No complaints to report so far. Everyone I work with is awesome, and the work I'm doing is interesting!!

Pros

Besides the typically perks you get working at a tech company, (free food, weekly HH's, offsite events, etc) the overall culture here is awesome! I can honestly say the best part of working here is my coworkers. People come from various backgrounds, and I dig the diversity! Everyone is really smart, respectful and overall just a fun group to be around. Also, we have a good gender ratio here (as a female, that's pretty important to me) which can be difficult in tech companies. Also, dog friendly = awesome!

Cons

Trying to keep track of all the new people getting hired!

Thank you for your great review of Zillow and the San Francisco office. I'm glad you are enjoying our culture and smart diverse coworkers. I agree it is great to see so many female tech folks, particularly in San Francisco!

Pros

The Culture of Zillow has continued as we have grown in size. The leadership has done an amazing job of keeping the transparency and collaborative culture alive and well. It's odd to say but every employee I talk to loves coming into work. I never hear someone groaning about 'another day at the office'. The company invests in it's employees and provides a safe, comfortable, and career growing environment.

Cons

The gym at the Zillow Tower is not a full gym. Yes, this is my only gripe.

Awesome. Thank you!!! Yes, Rich and Lloyd remain very involved (probably more involved than most people realize!). Lloyd mostly focuses on product and strategy issues, and Rich is very involved behind the scenes with me on a variety of things. Thanks for the great review.
