Vantaggi

A group of us were talking about how Trulia/Zillow changed our life so I figured I would jump on and share with you lovely people. I have been with Trulia (now Zillow Group) for over 4 years. 5 years ago if you would have told me my life is what it is today I would not have believed you. I have always been a hard working, dedicated and driven employee. With that being said I had the pleasure of working for large retail and corporate organizations successfully for over 10 years. While i have been lucky to work for great companies in my past, none of them hold a candle to Zillow Group. Since i have worked here I have grew in both my professional and personal live. I have been able to build a nest egg in my savings account, buy a house, upgrade my car and travel. Professionally I have been developed from role to role under great leaders and could not be happier to get up in the morning and come to work and kick tail (a very rare thing a few of us lucky ones have the luxury of experiencing). Since the Zillow/Trulia merger, while I did feel the pain of being on the Trulia side of the business and returning to being a newbie on a large team I have continued to grow and learn and am in a "Happy Place" again (after a couple months of growing/transition pain). I truly feel grateful and excited to be part of a unbelievably amazing organisation where you are not just a number on a paycheck. For those of you who are just all about the perks, here are a few words. While the crazy amount and variety of snacks and drinks in the kitchen are not the reason I come to work everyday, I do very much appreciate a PBJ, Chips, Lattes, Peaches, Bananas and more... Our insurance (free by the way) is the best I have ever seen (remember I have worked for large corporations where good insurance has been my norm, ZG benefits are above and beyond). Our yearly reviews resulting in bonus RSUs/Options for our hard working employees are simply above and beyond. For the record I was not asked me to right this review, nor do I in anyway feel obligated to say random nice things about ZG. Truth is I sincerely believe in where I work, what we do and the people we help everyday.

Svantaggi

Like I said above the Trulia/Zillow migration was a bit painful for a couple months. While it was not nearly as bad as other mergers I have witnessed and Zillow tried to ease the pain as much as possible the reality is those of us from the old Trulia side felt the pain.

Hi. Thank you for your wonderful response. It's great to hear someone with your tenure has had such a positive experience here and congrats on your continual development and recognition! Yes, the integration was a lot of work, but how great was the end result now and it was fun to watch us bond as a team. We are always interested in your feedback, so more surveys will keep happening, but, I'd love to talk with you any time, just holler and I'll pop over. We are always looking for ways to improve and get better. Thanks again and here's to many more years together at this amazing place. Greg Bland

Vantaggi

Generally the people I work with are great. They are supportive, creative, and work well as a team. Work-life balance is good, although some teams have more on-call than others.

Svantaggi

- Senior leadership has determined that inflation need not be a factor when calculating raises. - Also, we're having record profitability! But also money is very tight and we all need to tighten our belts. - Our stock is down 50% this year, but you all need to suck it up, even though stock is a huge part of pay. - We don't care that you are getting a 30% effective pay cut this year. - Performance ratings are calculated on vibes before reviews are actually written. - We've started outsourcing heavily to Mexico and India. - "We need to raise the bar" ("Please work harder for the same pay") - Health benefits have eroded for several years. - Other benefits have never been adjusted for inflation. - AI is becoming like a cult. We've actually been told that the dream is to never open a code editor again, despite the technology not being remotely ready for that (and with no proof that it is less expensive or saves time).
