Pros

Zoominfo continues to be the best in class product for intelligence and they’ve grown their suite through acquisition. The software sells itself and the more they have to offer in terms of additional products is beneficial to all of the teams.

Cons

Might be a strong opinion but there is little benefit to working at zoominfo aside from the product. Salary is average, you have to “apply” to be a fully remote employee, etc. - but the PTO policy for the GTM team really set me over the edge. No PTO granted in December or the last week of every other quarter. So I guess on Dec 1 I just tell my kids and family “see you next year”? Give me a break. The job market is far too hot to put up with that. Even if your manager allows you to take PTO during the blackout periods it’s supposed to be “hush hush” which isn’t a consolation. It’s a baffling policy and personally insulting to people with families/kids.

Pros

Great tool. Product and Engineering deserve a round of applause.

Cons

I’ll just summarise: - For a long time I worked 10-13 hour work weeks. Eventually they put into place an overtime program but only top performing reps could request time. This led to people working extra hours and not logging their time honestly, to ensure that they could keep up with the pace. - My boss showing up late to multiple meetings because they overslept. Or the constant use of explicit language… - People getting fired left and right. People also getting hired left and right. Survival of the fittest. In fact, their entire sales organisation is built on this model. - Demo day? Don’t even let me get started… My advice to anyone in their early 20s getting out of college: don’t put yourself through this. There are so many other, better, modern, tech startups to work at, that won’t milk you dry.

Thanks for your feedback. I agree with you – our Engineering and Product teams do a phenomenal job creating the modern go-to-market platform. It’s been a pleasure for me to sell during my tenure with ZoomInfo. As a former SDR myself, I know the challenges of the role very well, but I firmly believe that it’s the best possible arena to learn the foundations of tech sales. So with that in mind, I’d like to take the opportunity to respond to your concerns. I’m disappointed to hear that some people may not have been logging their time correctly. Our switch to hourly for SDRs was intended to help our reps better balance their work and life. It’s fairly typical for companies to deny overtime to under-performing employees, but it is not accurate to say that we only approve overtime for top performers. In fact, we haven’t denied any overtime requests since the switch was made. The feedback I’ve received from this change has been overwhelmingly positive. Regarding turnover, you would find the same situation amongst SDRs at any other tech company. It’s an entry level position where folks find out if Sales is a career they see for themselves. It’s not the right fit for everyone. Add to that the current job market and our astronomical rate of growth, and I can see how you might get a perception of high turnover. In reality, our turnover rate is below the industry benchmark. We 100% want to see everyone grow and succeed here, but we’re a high-performing, fast-paced culture and have high expectations of all our employees. It’s how we’ve been so successful. I am concerned about your report of a manager acting unprofessionally, and I apologize for that. We take these reviews very seriously and will look into this immediately. Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts. I wish you the best. – Brian Vital, ZoomInfo Vice President of Sales Development

Pros

The product is great. The company is growing quite rapidly.

Cons

It is incredibly disorganized. The communication between departments is non existent. I want to like it here, but the culture is toxic. They heavily micromanage. It's disappointing to me because I wanted this job to work out, and they will continue to grow despite themselves.

Building ZoomInfo into a world class organization will mean having to support an increase in customers, an increase in employees, and an increase in projects. We are looking for people who can adopt that passion to help us build and develop essential structures that we can use to decrease gaps where needed. We do understand that the work it will take to accomplish these structures will require skill sets that not everyone will possess. The work won’t be for everyone. -Nir, Chief Technology Officer
