Pros

The Company has the vast amount of business contact information. ZoomInfo's revenue is growing at a steady speed through good marketing and sales team.

Cons

Data is the key for Zoominfo. But these are gathered through hand-featured engineering and heuristics. Therefore, sometimes they are not accurate. For example, there will be an article saying that company X has Y number of employees, which are from the official sources. But ZoomInfo database would say that this number larger than 4-5 times than the actual number. The fact about human data is they always change as times passes. e.g. when they move to another company. Keeping up with this and detecting false positives are a challenge for this company.

We look for talent and results driven people to join our organization. Successful team members innovate and look for ways to improve the quality of our data. We want people who are driven to use new technology and to be a part of building a stronger underlying architecture around our data with quality at the forefront. These are exciting times to be at ZoomInfo for those with the passion, grit, and determination to be a part of it. -Nir, Chief Technology Officer

Thank you for the kind words. This genuinely means a lot to us. We're proud of the caliber of leaders here and the pace at which we're embedding AI into how we work, so it's great to hear that comes through day-to-day. You're right that the macro environment is presenting challenges – we won't pretend otherwise. What we can control is continuing to move faster and smarter than our peers, and feedback like yours is a reminder of why the culture we've built is a competitive advantage in itself. We're glad you're part of it. – Jennifer Creticos, ZoomInfo Chief Business Officer

Pros

Good pay, good benefits and great office.

Cons

Poor hiring decisions, recent layoffs eliminated mostly remote employees because they are prioritizing in office employees, especially with recent investment in office. RIF was not at all based on performance which meant that some in office employees who don't know what they are doing got to keep their job. You have to suck up to management to get promoted and a lot of really good reps leave as a result of constant micro-management.

Thank you for the feedback, and we're glad the pay, benefits, and office experience worked well for you. To be clear, though, the recent restructure was not targeted at remote employees. It reflected a strategic decision to restructure some of our sales and support operations as we shift how we approach certain segments of the business, both in terms of personnel and platform. The people affected were valued contributors and we recognize their work helped make ZoomInfo what it is today. The suggestion that in-office employees who stayed "don't know what they're doing" simply isn't accurate. Additionally, we go hard at the end of every month (which is true across SaaS sales broadly) but would push back on the characterization of the culture. Our employee engagement team works hard to make that sprint enjoyable, with in-office lunches and activities. Sales is a high-pressure environment by nature, and we're proud of the culture we've built around it. We appreciate you sharing your perspective, even where we see it differently. – Stephen Antuna, ZoomInfo SVP of Account Management
