Pros

Henry, the CEO, appears as a nice guy and a hard worker, but given my experience, he seems like a different guy behind the scenes.

Cons

ZoomInfo matched my salary with RSUs (restricted stock units) set to fully vest in 25 months. After 21 months, I transitioned to a new position thanks to a referral from an executive leader. Three months later, and after the third round of layoffs during my short time, my position was eliminated, and I received $0 of the RSUs from my offer letter, one month before I was fully vested. The only thing consistent at ZoomInfo is change. Given the consistent rounds of layoffs and executives ‘leaving’ the company, it honestly felt like your role could be eliminated at any time. There was a lack of quality people leaders, and most managers had serious trust issues with delegating work to individual contributors. This culture likely stems from an unrealistic goal of remaining 40% profitable as the company continues to grow. As soon as that goal is in jeopardy, they eliminate roles. Save yourself the time and avoid working for this company.

Pros

- The caliber of people here, from engineering to sales to operations. There's a collaborative, "figure it out together" culture rather than territorial silos. - Leadership is generally open to internal mobility and stretch assignments if you raise your hand. I've seen colleagues move across departments and take on bigger scope when they show initiative. - Solid and affordable health benefits compared to anywhere else I have worked, unlimited PTO, and perks that reflect a company that cares about employee wellbeing. - Things move fast here, which means you get exposure to a lot and can see the direct impact of your work relatively quickly compared to larger, more bureaucratic companies.

Cons

Like any growing company, it's not without its challenges. The pace can be intense, and priorities sometimes shift quickly.
