Pros

The Seattle Zillow office is very nice with an outstanding view. However, the best part of my job by far was the people I worked with. My colleges were supportive, fun and just all around amazing people. My team lead Justin Wixom was always encouraging and always positive. We had a great team dynamic. I enjoyed meetings and anytime we were together as a group. It was the people on this team that made leaving this job very difficult.

Cons

The position does not pay well. It is hard to live in Seattle with a salary like this. It was challenging to work early hours and have to pay to for an uber or parking to get to work safely.

Hi, thanks for your feedback. It's inspiring to hear how you feel about your team and your manager. We work hard to create an environment that fosters that kind of community and drives productivity. Regarding pay, we're consistently ranked as a great place to work. I believe our compensation and benefits package is highly competitive for the type of work, experience required, location, our industry and other factors. Our department covers a ton of hours, and some shifts do start earlier than a typical 9 to 5 job, which is why we're extremely clear in recruiting what shifts are available and what the hours are. In terms of parking, we adjusted the schedules of the entire Seattle office to better match the transit schedule, resulting in +200% increase in amount of bus routes available to teammates withing a 20 mile radius of our building, allowing them to use the bus pass Zillow provides to get to work safely and for free. I'm happy to hear other feedback you have about your time at Zillow, and what else we can do better. Shoot me a note at jrg@zillowgroup.com.
