      Big potential, flawed strategy

      Pros

      Terrific people, most of whom have backgrounds from some of the top area companies like MS, Expedia, and Amazon. Big industry ripe for change- real estate is a multi-billion dollar category stuck in the dark ages. Chance to work on a disruptive business. Good work-life balance for a start up. Interesting and challenging work- you will work on projects that are core to the company and to its vision.

      Cons

      Stingy stock grants- which is surprising given that this is what should be motivating employees. Liquidity event is many years away- plan on at least 3-4 years before your stock has value. Still struggling to drive revenue- advertising is an ok way to go, but the company needs more revenue streams. Limited career upside as it is a small company.

      Zillow is in the toilet

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Benefits and money but that doesn’t last long, like slapping lipstick on a pig.

      Cons

      They are gradually moving all teams to either El Salvador or Mexico making upward mobility non existent. They treat internal candidates like dog water. Have been told that maybe i should look for outside opportunities if I want to possibly move up. Constant reorg changes. Hiring from T-mobile has just made the environment stale as they would rather hire their friends.
