Pros

At Zillow, you will be challenged like you have never been before. You will be asked to tackle big projects, work fast, and deliver great results. You will be provided with opportunities that do not exist at other companies - and that is awesome! If you are willing to roll up your sleeves and dive right in head first, then Zillow is the place for you.

Cons

Sales team is quite large and sometimes out of control. Tons of moving parts which makes it hard to educate those on the front lines to make sure we are providing the best customer experience and/or introducing new products/features.

Pros

Generally the people I work with are great. They are supportive, creative, and work well as a team. Work-life balance is good, although some teams have more on-call than others.

Cons

- Senior leadership has determined that inflation need not be a factor when calculating raises. - Also, we're having record profitability! But also money is very tight and we all need to tighten our belts. - Our stock is down 50% this year, but you all need to suck it up, even though stock is a huge part of pay. - We don't care that you are getting a 30% effective pay cut this year. - Performance ratings are calculated on vibes before reviews are actually written. - We've started outsourcing heavily to Mexico and India. - "We need to raise the bar" ("Please work harder for the same pay") - Health benefits have eroded for several years. - Other benefits have never been adjusted for inflation. - AI is becoming like a cult. We've actually been told that the dream is to never open a code editor again, despite the technology not being remotely ready for that (and with no proof that it is less expensive or saves time).
