Pros

I really enjoyed the people that I was able to work with during my time at Zillow. The perks were excellent and the people really seemed to care about their work.

Cons

The compensation was below market, but that seems to be the price paid for working in a cool working environment. I ended up leaving for another job that offered a competitive salary without the cool working environment.

Pros

Zillow is by far the best place I have ever worked. The management is competent, welcoming and excited to be there everyday. The job itself is not extremely glamorous, but the perks and benefits far outweigh that. I finally get to experience working for a company that places high value on each and every one of its employees.

Cons

None that I can think of right now.

Thank you for the review and feedback. On internal comms - we are working on an intranet to launch in the spring which should really help with internal product updates across our various brands and offices. I'm glad you are happy here overall! - Amy (COO)
