Pros

ZoomInfo is a great company for software development. ZoomInfo offers challenging work using up to date and interesting technologies. It is a great place to develop new skills and gain experience in some of the "hot" industry technologies. There are a lot of great employees here that are more than willing to share their own knowledge, encourage employee growth, and have fun in the process. ZoomInfo is attempting to tackle some very difficult problems that will push you as a software developer. Additionally, the work/life balance is fantastic and management is very easy to work. A number of the managers at Zoom were previously developers at Zoom, so they have a great understanding of the challenges presented in the work here.

Cons

The challenges presented by the problem space that ZoomInfo is attempting to solve are substantial. This means that as a software developer here, you will be expected to push yourself, work hard, and solve problems. There are plenty of resources here to guide you, but it is an expectation that employees will work hard at problem solving and develop skills over time to tackle issues presented by challenging projects. Also, as a small agile company, Zoom tries to react to changes in the marketplace. As a result, software developers may find themselves facing shifting priorities. This has been improved recently as Zoom appears to be better understanding and focusing on specific, concrete goals.

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
