Pros

Exciting Product, Ambitious CEO, Option to choose between a Mac and PC

Cons

Ever dreamt of toxic managers who are on your case 24x7? Want to work around the clock and still be belittled? Eager to work on 15-16 hour days on average? Look no further. ZoomInfo, the modern day slave shop is here to save the day. With disrespectful management that is looking to score points with their bosses at the expense of making you work nonstop, the Marketing and GTM teams at ZoomInfo are bringing back slavery back to corporate America that Lincoln and MLK raised their voice against. The team has undergone several layoffs without a solid reason (racism, favoritism is rampant) and management has later covered up to avoid the team morale to fall. However, most of my colleagues are actively looking for new jobs to escape the horrendous work culture. Do yourself a favor and don't even bother entertaining this company. It will be the biggest mistake of your career. Note: This is an honest account of my time at ZoomInfo. My review may or may not attract HR attention, but if it does, please ignore. Truth hurts. Really.

Pros

ZoomInfo has an incredible company culture that truly stands out-- even working remotely, you feel connected and part of something bigger. The company has a strong focus on being a leader in its space and is constantly innovating, which keeps the work exciting and meaningful. There is a genuine willingness to let ideas and concepts flourish, and employees are empowered to contribute in real ways. I am coming up on four years here, which speaks for itself-- this is a place where you can grow, get promoted quickly, and build a real career. The development resources are outstanding, including McKinsey Leadership programs, internal leadership courses, and LinkedIn Learning. Managers are supportive and invested in your success which makes showing up to work exciting

Cons

At times, communication between departments can be a challenge at the individual contributor level, which can make cross-functional collaboration feel a bit siloed. Additionally, there is still work to be done around diversity in leadership-- increasing representation of people of color and women in leadership roles would make an already great culture even stronger.
