Positively Toxic, Abusive, Self-Serving Leadership

Business Outlook

Pros

Work from home. Decent pay, however, Zillow will do everything possible to steal earn wages from you while increasing quotas and paying less quarter after quarter.

Cons

Zillow Rentals is the definition of toxicity positivity. Leadership quotes core values while ignoring them in practice. While Zillow Rentals may seem like a great place to work, most of the staff is unhappy and feels beaten down. Leadership is known for protecting each other, going as far to cover up reports of sexist behavior and actively push out anyone who speaks out about unethical behavior.

Pros

Good compensation, benefits and ability to work remote.

Cons

Inexperienced and immature managers who lack accountability and tend to have everyone running in circles. Teams don’t work together and end up being territorial and operate in silos. Toxic environment, deception between teams due to manager power trips, bad behavior runs rampant
