Pros

• Thorough training program and supportive peers • Competitive salary and decent benefits, like the $75 wellness perk and $150 home office stipend • Opportunity to travel to Seattle three times for free

Cons

•The pressure to close 10 deals before training ends is overwhelming and stressful. If you don’t meet the target, you’re fired without severance, right before the holidays, and you’ll have to repay the signing bonus. This adds a crushing level of anxiety, especially knowing your job security is on the line from day one. • The work-life balance is practically non-existent. To have any shot at getting decent leads, you’re forced to wake up at 5:30 AM and start your day in a hyper-competitive, first-come-first-serve environment. • The quality of leads is terrible. Most of us are pitching to the same recycled contacts who have already heard Zillow’s script numerous times. It’s demoralizing to realize the system is set up for us to fail or barely scrape by. • PTO is laughable: only 14 days a year that you have to accrue. The constant pressure and need to perform make taking time off feel impossible. •The turnover rate is sky-high. It feels like the company just wants bodies to fill seats and bring in 10 deals each before churning out. Once you realize the setup, it’s hard not to feel used and undervalued.
