Pros

The company has maintained a small company feel despite our rapid growth over the last three years. The people I work with are insightful, creative, and also really supportive and friendly. The work I do is challenging and recognition for great work is abundant. People are passionate about their work and it shows in the meetings and in the presentation of projects. The company is very transparent in its goals and processes, and knowledge sharing is encouraged. There is also a huge emphasis on work life balance, but people also recognize that sometimes those hours need to be put in to hit a deadline. I haven't had an issue with putting in those extra hours because in the long run it helps.

Cons

There are some big company politics that have creeped in subtly with the rapid hiring that we've done of people from the big boys in the area like Microsoft, Expedia, and Google, but most of it is squashed when they figure out how Zillow operates.

Now we're talking! I liked your review very much. If you ever see politics at Zillow and you want me to stamp it out, please either talk to me or email me. If you want to do it anonymously, remember that if you go to the "Zillow Talk Blog" (our internal blog), you can send anonymous feedback which goes to me and to HR. 100% anonymous. Thank you!
