Pros

AMAZING benefits. Great culture, Fun workspace. Great people. Unparalleled senior leadership. I could say more, but let me just give you one example of the company putting their money (lots of it) where their mouth is: For the holiday party, the company has offered to provide a ride home or hotel room for every single employee. They insist that none of us are on the road after the party. Some companies say they care about their team. This one proves it time after time.

Cons

Company cons: not many. Job-specific cons: High stress, tons of calls, high expectations. (But here's the thing- they VERY CLEARLY outline this in the hiring process, and if you take the job knowing this and then act surprised, that's a you problem)

Thank you for the great review! I hope you had as great a time at the 2013 holiday party as I did. Sounds like you did! I'm glad you're having a good experience here, and it only gets better in sales. Once you have even more clients in your book of business, you start to realize that you're making a difference in their lives and it stops feeling like "selling" and starts feeling like "helping", which it is. Thank you for being at Zillow!

Thank you for your review. It makes me very happy to see feedback like this, especially from someone who has been here for 3+ years. As I've said at many company meetings, I worry a lot about making sure we don't change the culture now that we're bigger and publicly traded. I think we're doing a good job of guarding what made/makes Zillow special, but you can't be too careful. Thank you again.

Pros

Zillow has great people from the top down. They have created a great environment and bringing in great people is instrumental in adding to the bottom line. I enjoyed seeing Spencer walking the sales floor and best of all there is a sweeping view of the Sound and free Starbucks coffee and drinks.

Cons

The job could get repetitive at times.
