Good product Excercise Bikes, Ping Pong tables etc Nice people IPO on the Horizon

Svantaggi

-Commission structure was changed because sales rep were making "too much money" and is being lowered again in Jan 2020 -There's literally no territory left -There are no holidays. CRO sent email saying they want all people working xmas eve -It's normal for people to take less than a week for paternity leave in fear of "missing" work - Acquiring company's sales reps are treated differently, get higher priority leads, and close 3x the revenue as a result -Reps who were making money haven't made money in 5 months since the acquisition -New management can't be trusted. People are constantly getting let go with no warning, and the remaining folks are spending time in conference rooms crying and fearing cuts. -Atmosphere is extremely toxic. -Despite "unlimited vacation", employees are afraid to take vacation in fear of missing quota and getting immediately put on plan -Minimal equity offered with a vesting period that will happen 2 years from IPO after everyone's been let go -The day of the acquisition the CEO Henry said one of the best things about his last acquisition was firing 75% of that company -CEO ripped out the plugs on the arcade games complaining about paying too much for electricity, and complains about the cost of offering cold brew and snacks -Commute takes an hour each way no matter where you come from

Thank you for your feedback. Acquisitions create many difficult hurdles but we are looking forward to successfully combining the two cultures.

Thank you for the kind words. This genuinely means a lot to us. We're proud of the caliber of leaders here and the pace at which we're embedding AI into how we work, so it's great to hear that comes through day-to-day. You're right that the macro environment is presenting challenges – we won't pretend otherwise. What we can control is continuing to move faster and smarter than our peers, and feedback like yours is a reminder of why the culture we've built is a competitive advantage in itself. We're glad you're part of it. – Jennifer Creticos, ZoomInfo Chief Business Officer

Vantaggi

Good pay, good benefits and great office.

Svantaggi

Poor hiring decisions, recent layoffs eliminated mostly remote employees because they are prioritizing in office employees, especially with recent investment in office. RIF was not at all based on performance which meant that some in office employees who don't know what they are doing got to keep their job. You have to suck up to management to get promoted and a lot of really good reps leave as a result of constant micro-management.

Thank you for the feedback, and we're glad the pay, benefits, and office experience worked well for you. To be clear, though, the recent restructure was not targeted at remote employees. It reflected a strategic decision to restructure some of our sales and support operations as we shift how we approach certain segments of the business, both in terms of personnel and platform. The people affected were valued contributors and we recognize their work helped make ZoomInfo what it is today. The suggestion that in-office employees who stayed "don't know what they're doing" simply isn't accurate. Additionally, we go hard at the end of every month (which is true across SaaS sales broadly) but would push back on the characterization of the culture. Our employee engagement team works hard to make that sprint enjoyable, with in-office lunches and activities. Sales is a high-pressure environment by nature, and we're proud of the culture we've built around it. We appreciate you sharing your perspective, even where we see it differently. – Stephen Antuna, ZoomInfo SVP of Account Management
