Pros

Great compensation, culture, benefits... everything.

Cons

Inter-departmental communication needs improvement. One of the company core values is Move Fast, Think Big and that can prove difficult at times. Seems that the company grew to enormous size without streamlining many processes as it grew.

Thank you for this feedback and great to hear you enjoy it here so much! Good call out, yes, as we scale it becomes harder to know all that's going on, so we'll need to work harder at more communication and with different channels going forward. Thanks again for sharing. Greg Bland, VP Sales, Denver Office.

Great company to be a part of!

Pros

Excellent benefits! Commuting and Gym membership reimbursements are a huge plus. Although Zillow has grown to a 2,000+ employee company, the company maintains the startup vibe by segmenting each team to address a specific "play" or goal.

Cons

Benefits are terrific, but pay could be a bit more competitive, especially for San Francisco.

Thanks for the review. We focus a lot on providing the right benefits and also calling clear plays so that teams can move fast. Glad both seem to be working. - Dan (VP and GM, Rentals)
