      Pros

      Free snacks are nice as they help you forget the many cons for a brief minute. They are really a shallow attempt to placate.

      Cons

      - PEOPLE DO NOT MATTER - Toxic culture that runs DEEP - Cronyism and backstabbing are rampant - LONG and ongoing history of sexism and discrimination - Bold faced lying to employees is a constant - Diversity and respect for differences are non-existent except as propaganda - Run by affluent MBAs with no real world skills (you are a number, period) - 100% a Silicon Valley Bro culture - Binge drinking and illegal drug use at company events - Sexual relationships with subordinates are common and go unaddressed - Unpaid overtime is routine - Making fun of medical conditions by manager - HR operates 100% in the companies interest. They, all the way up to the CPO, ignore illegal activity and cover things up (they are promoted for doing so) - Chicken with it’s head cut off leadership team (100% short-term and tactically focused) - Policies are enforced in discriminating fashion Do your research before taking a job at Zillow. The lawsuits by employees are staggering and will give you a real sense of what you are walking into (nothing has changed). Read all of the reviews as well.

      Pros

      You can make good money here.

      Cons

      In sales, job can change often. For example: I was making good money and excelling because I am a relationship Sales person. Then they changed it to where you get the sale, and instead of being able to grow that account via that relationship you just broke into, you have to pass it to an account manager and go back to cold/robo calling. You "book" of business you recive to prospect from is a lottery. I received a book of prospects/accounts that most of the were low income, or senior living properties. They don't have a budget and have a line of renter on a waitlist. No way to convince them to spend money on advertising but you still have the same quota.
