Pros

Many benefits Easy-going culture Great work location

Cons

Strategically, their business really doesn't make sense Tends to not deliver value to either realtors or home sellers Bosses can cut you off at the knees when you think they can't

Zillow Response

As someone who was with the company for some time, you were on board through massive growth, exciting times and of course, the challenges that both of these can create. I'm disappointed that after all the time you spent here you left with a negative view of your experience. Best of luck in your new chapter. -VP, Recruiting

Enjoyed Going to Work, But Weird Drama and Poor Management

Business Outlook

Pros

I looked forward to going to work each day to be around my colleagues. There was a lot going on, various learning and training opportunities, that were always offered. The snacks and drinks were top notch.

Cons

It often felt like management made weird rules or policies that made no sense and did not take the rest of the employees into consideration. There were often weird power dynamics with managers who seemed to micromanage when there wasn't a lot of transparency about what they were even doing each day.

Zillow Response
