Great if you are not BIPOC

Pros

In the rentals org there are a lot of great coworkers and a good chunk of great management. If you hustle, as you should, you will easily exceed your targets.

Cons

The Enterprise team, the top position in the rentals org, just did a large hiring. Everyone brought on to the team looks the same. They are all white and straight identifying. There are 40 people on the team and only 2 are BIPOC. For a team that handles all the largest accounts you think they would represent what Zillow stands for. It has been made clear to me and others that the only way to move up in the team and be recognized for your hard work is to look and act like the group who is hiring.
