Pros

Fantastic people, fun atmosphere, interesting technical challenges, easy to advance through solid performance. Zillow is on its way to taking a big slice of the online real estate pie, which is only increasing in size. They have a lot of talented engineers who understand what it means to work hard, play hard. Their business philosophy of handing useful information feels like a noble goal to work toward.

Cons

Chaotic work environment can lead to excessive stress for those who don't thrive on it. It can be difficult to push individual ideas and inventions into serious consideration relative to the vision of senior management or more pressing business needs of the company.

Pros

Great Location, "9 to 5" work pace, co-workers generally very kind

Cons

Schizophrenic management that lacks focus, lack of trust in judgement of subordinates, tendency to micromanage. Several high level managers where incompetent and control freaks, their bosses were unwilling or unable to recognize the problems and take corrective action before these people "poisoned" the company and the culture.
