Pros

Smart people, unlimited problems to solve, ability to innovate quickly and test new ideas. You are encouraged to think and go big instead of simply iteration on the existing product. The work life balance is very good for a company that is growing this fast.

Cons

The development effort moves fast and spec light so if you want a detailed spec to code to this isn't your company.

Pros

Awesome culture of mutual respect, team work, and growth. It's a place for both employees who have families and those who are just starting out their carriers and want to work hard and burn the midnight oil. Company still retains its startup culture and encourages openess

Cons

Can't really think of much.

Thank you very much for your feedback. I'm really glad that you've had a good experience here. It's particularly cool to see that you think we have retained our "startup culture" - that's something which I work hard at, and it is difficult given our size. But it's important that we remain nimble and keep all the benefits of being a startup but also have the benefits of significant resources from being a big company. Trying to get the best of both worlds, and I think we're doing a good job at it.

Pros

I feel like a valued individual at Zillow. It's small enough where I can have a huge impact but not so small that we have to make short term decions that aren't inline with our long term goals. It's still early enough that there is lots of cool work to be done.

Cons

The compensation is typically a little lower then some of the other places in town. But I felt that trade off was worth it due to the great work life balance and company culture.
