Pros

Really top notch benefits and great office. The engineering teams are kind, passionate and poised to execute. If you are focused on climbing a rickety corporate ladder, then this is a great place. Despite obstacles, I was able to build productive relationships, add value, and acquire great experience, hence the 2 stars given.

Cons

If you want to build or support a great product, then this might not be the place for you. Trulia struggled through all of 2017 to hire a VP Product, meanwhile losing some exemplary managers. The differentiating vision of a "vibrant neighborhood community" is fading fast, as actual product changes are weak. Ask hard questions if you interview here. Ask to SEE what they've done lately, don't settle for the PR version. Ask if there is more than a subtle chance that Zillow will swallow Trulia.

Trulia Response

Hi, Thank you for the review. This is Spencer, the CEO of Zillow Group (parent company of Trulia). First, let me agree with one of your points -- there has been a lot of change at Trulia. We have changed the leadership there, and have mostly an all new executive team. I am extremely confident in the new leadership at Trulia. I am also confident in the product direction and product strategy. (I'm not going to elaborate here on the strategy since I know that competitors read these reviews!) Trulia is currently the 3rd largest real estate site on the web and is in a position to become the 2nd (or even the 1st) most visited real estate site. Trulia is doing innovative work and has the full support and backing of Zillow Group which gives it the resources and latitude to build great products that make a difference.
