      Pros

      Great culture and environment to work in. Teams focus on growth, and efficiently fix any issues that come up. Teams are also careful in choosing the technologies they use in order to maximize scalability, and are not scared of transitioning to a totally new technology and scrapping the prior. I learned something new every day. Lots of communication within teams as well.

      Cons

      Finding the right team for you might be a challenge.

      Thank you for your feedback. I am glad you experienced a positive engineering culture and the appreciation for moving fast and thinking big. We have a number of technology evolutions going on within our development stack and we place a high priority on transitioning to technologies, frameworks and tools that help us maintain a fast and efficient development and release process as well as work with technologies that are modern and scalable. We favor small product teams with big areas of ownership and opportunity. As the number of teams grow, it is important for us to help drive awareness and collaboration across teams. We support migration between teams and offices, across all our locations (Seattle, San Francisco, New York City, Irvine, Vancouver, Cincinnati and Lincoln).

      Pros

      You can make good money here.

      Cons

      In sales, job can change often. For example: I was making good money and excelling because I am a relationship Sales person. Then they changed it to where you get the sale, and instead of being able to grow that account via that relationship you just broke into, you have to pass it to an account manager and go back to cold/robo calling. You "book" of business you recive to prospect from is a lottery. I received a book of prospects/accounts that most of the were low income, or senior living properties. They don't have a budget and have a line of renter on a waitlist. No way to convince them to spend money on advertising but you still have the same quota.

      Thank you for sharing such a detailed perspective. We understand that frequent changes to roles, account ownership and business priorities can have a real impact on relationship-building and the day-to-day experience in sales. We’re glad to hear compensation was a positive part of your time at Zillow, and we appreciate you being candid about where the model and structure felt frustrating. Feedback like yours helps us better understand how these changes are experienced across teams as the business evolves.
