Pros

First and foremost the people I work with is the secret to the great culture. Followed by the way C Suite leadership actually listens to ideas, concerns or simple feedback. This company has been a gamechanger for my career and A LOT of my peers as well.

Cons

If change and progress are uncomfortable for someone it could be a challenge.

Pros

You learn how to be a sales professional while having fun. The ability to make 6 figures. There is never a dull moment and they give you lots of benefits and spiffs.

Cons

Too many politics, promoting is not merit based and favoritism is a part of the job in some aspects. The company has a lot of links to work out and hopefully soon. Management should be trained before appointed to management. Your success can be determined by your manager and/or your region which are both out of your control.

Thank you for the review. We are glad to hear you find both the culture and financial opportunity as positive aspects of our business. Regarding career pathing and promotions, our approach is focused as much on performance and skill set as it is exhibition of our company values. I am curious to hear more about your experience; specifically pertaining to promotions not being merit based and suggestions you have regarding the continued development of our leadership team. Please feel free to pull me aside on the sales floor or schedule some time to discuss your feedback. Thanks again for your review. Steve Capezza – Senior Director, Orange County Sales

Pros

Excellent benefits! Commuting and Gym membership reimbursements are a huge plus. Although Zillow has grown to a 2,000+ employee company, the company maintains the startup vibe by segmenting each team to address a specific "play" or goal.

Cons

Benefits are terrific, but pay could be a bit more competitive, especially for San Francisco.
