Great company - Senior Software Engineer Zillow Employee Review

I appreciate you taking the time to provide some feedback. I'm especially happy that you feel our small product team model is working well for you and your team. Work life balance and good benefits are also important. After 10 years, there are some teams dealing with more code history than others. We encourage our teams to work with the various stack groups (java, python, ux, build/deploy, etc) to help us plan our ongoing investments and migration in our core technologies. Teams should also be investing in their own services by building time into their project plans to address this tech debt as we build new services or make significant enhancements. Additionally, we are working to create more independence across teams with investments in core tooling and creating more micro-services and minimize dependencies to the areas where they are truly need. I'm pleased with the progress we are making, but of course there is more to do. If you or others on your team would like to get more involved in these efforts, please track me down and I can connect you with the right people. Thanks again for your feedback and hard work. We are only successful because of the great work of our people and we need them driving these improvements. David Beitel, Zillow Group CTO.
