Pros

Solid product market fit, heavy inbound lead flow, attractive commission structure

Cons

Terrible work-life balance. Cheesy sales/ discount tactics that prospects see right through. Extremely transactional - making it difficult to accurately forecast. Many of the companies you speak with will have no real need and its about capitalizing on these prospects emotions in the moment

Thank you for the candid feedback and for recognizing the strength of the product and inbound demand. In SMB, the sale is sometimes more transactional, and that is because we are often helping smaller companies quickly change the trajectory of their business with our solutions. That can make forecasting harder at times, but we are proud to show up whenever customers need us. On work life balance, we have made real progress. We encourage reps to align with their leaders on their personal priorities and time off needs so they can take care of themselves and still hit their number. We know sales roles can be intense, and we are continuously working to support better balance while maintaining a high-performance culture. Thanks again for your feedback. – Steven Bryerton, ZoomInfo SVP of New Business Sales

Thank you for the kind words. This genuinely means a lot to us. We're proud of the caliber of leaders here and the pace at which we're embedding AI into how we work, so it's great to hear that comes through day-to-day. You're right that the macro environment is presenting challenges – we won't pretend otherwise. What we can control is continuing to move faster and smarter than our peers, and feedback like yours is a reminder of why the culture we've built is a competitive advantage in itself. We're glad you're part of it. – Jennifer Creticos, ZoomInfo Chief Business Officer

Pros

Good pay, good benefits and great office.

Cons

Poor hiring decisions, recent layoffs eliminated mostly remote employees because they are prioritizing in office employees, especially with recent investment in office. RIF was not at all based on performance which meant that some in office employees who don't know what they are doing got to keep their job. You have to suck up to management to get promoted and a lot of really good reps leave as a result of constant micro-management.

Thank you for the feedback, and we're glad the pay, benefits, and office experience worked well for you. To be clear, though, the recent restructure was not targeted at remote employees. It reflected a strategic decision to restructure some of our sales and support operations as we shift how we approach certain segments of the business, both in terms of personnel and platform. The people affected were valued contributors and we recognize their work helped make ZoomInfo what it is today. The suggestion that in-office employees who stayed "don't know what they're doing" simply isn't accurate. Additionally, we go hard at the end of every month (which is true across SaaS sales broadly) but would push back on the characterization of the culture. Our employee engagement team works hard to make that sprint enjoyable, with in-office lunches and activities. Sales is a high-pressure environment by nature, and we're proud of the culture we've built around it. We appreciate you sharing your perspective, even where we see it differently. – Stephen Antuna, ZoomInfo SVP of Account Management
