Pros

The benefits are top of the line, and in most cases the pay is above average. The CEO is extremely transparent, and the company's mission is genuine.

Cons

As with any emerging tech company, change is essential. However, sometimes that goal precedes the needs of their client base, or products and features are released too quickly.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re happy you like the perks, but we’re obviously disappointed by the report of your other experiences. We work hard to select and train great managers, and to give people autonomy to do a great job. We also pride ourselves on creating and fostering a friendly and enjoyable work environment. If you can provide any specific feedback, I would really appreciate it (and maybe we can fix what your experiencing quickly). Please email me at tonys@zillowgroup.com or come by my desk at any time.

Pros

Great company as a whole. Really can't complain from a big picture. The CEO is remarkable, the vision is amazing, and the benefits are incredible.

Cons

The Denver office is really only a sales center. Don't get me wrong, you can make a great living, but career trajectory is very limited.
