Pros

Fantastic training, management team, and environment. Ample opportunity to move around the company. Career oriented sales organization. Innovative and committed to growth.

Cons

Comp changes constantly in the wrong direction. The sales organization beat expectations and they were rewarded with twice the competition and a worse compensation plan. They gave us a base pay raise but the commission pay out has been cut in halve over the last 3 years. There is a inverse incentive to become a senior account manager or executive.

Thank you for your review. I am glad to hear of your positive experiences on the team with leadership, training and our overall office environment. Thank you for contributing to what makes Orange County an incredible sales team! I am interested to have more dialogue with you regarding your views on the compensation plan. Our compensation plan is designed to provide a compelling financial opportunity that rewards top performers. When you have some time I would love to walk through the plan with you, look at potential solutions, and provide pathing towards a very successful year for you. Come stop by my desk anytime. Thanks again for your feedback, I look forward to speaking with you more in detail. Jami Thomas- Senior Director

Pros

Highly collaborative, driven and supportive work environment that rewards its employees for the effort they put in. There are few opportunities left in this world where you truly get out what you put in - both monetarily and psychologically.

Cons

There are no easy big money jobs. You have to earn your paycheck.

Pros

Great work life balance, great compensation, great opportunity to make as much as you want. Great work culture, amazing benefits....plus a lot more. I'm writing this review because I've worked in the Seattle sales office for a while now and shocked to read all the comments about have to work over 40 hours a week in order to make quota. Which is NOT TRUE!!! I think our quota's are more than reasonable and most decent worker in sales usually surpass their quota about 120% if not higher. If you feel like you need to work more than 40 hours in order to hit quota, you're probably not cut out for sales or this is not the right job for you. That's just being brutally honest. I've worked in sales for over 12 yrs for many different companies and Zillow is probably one of the best ones with low stress, great work life balance and still have potential to make a lot of money. Of course you have to work HARD though, I honesty work less than 40 hours a week and sales managers don't mind. As long as you keep your numbers up and hit quota which is very achievable you get full autonomy and if you want to leave a little early on a Friday its totally OK!

Cons

Can't think of anything, keep up the good work!
