Vantaggi

Successful company and the platform is great, I was using it before I even worked here.

Svantaggi

Sales is obviously a very competitive environment no matter where you are, your numbers tell your story and that's obviously something very important no matter where you are, BUT I felt the atmosphere at Zoominfo specifically was toxic. Unless you're willing to work 15 hours a day and take absolutely no time for yourself, you are likely not getting promoted within the first year, even if you come in with experience like I did. On top of that, you're also not getting paid enough to work those hours to make it even feel worth it. The micromanagement here is unlike anything I had ever seen, my manager told a kid on my team to better plan his bathroom breaks so they didn't interfere with a call block. You also get messaged if they see 10 minutes go by without a call. You're made to feel guilty when you try to use any of the unlimited PTO they love to brag about. You're calling the same people over and over again so you spend half the day getting yelled at. If you value your mental health and having some sort of life outside of work, this isn't for you.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience working at ZoomInfo. We’re pleased to hear you found value in our product prior to joining. Sales is certainly a competitive atmosphere, and with the amount of growth we have experienced this year, we understand it can leave colleagues feeling especially busy. We brought this review to Brian Vital, our Vice President of Sales and he had some feedback we'd like to share: Regarding work/life balance, our culture is dynamic and we are laser-focused on successfully building out the go-to-market platforms of the future. This is no small feat and oftentimes it forces us to move at a fast pace, be innovative and work hard. In terms of 15-hour workdays, it is rare that our sales team members experience days that long, and if they do, they are compensated for them. In regard to employees taking breaks, we certainly wouldn’t try to stop anyone from excusing themselves to use the restroom- that would not be a great experience for anyone involved. We strive to ensure our hard-working employees feel empowered to utilize time off through our unlimited PTO program. We also empower our employees to manage their work/life balance despite the changing demands. Our internal mobility is 3x the industry average, and we always aim to promote from within so our employees experience excellent career growth during their time here. In fact, we often see promotions from inbound to outbound sales occur within the first six months of employment. I hope this helps. -Brian Vital, Vice President, Sales Development

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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.

Vantaggi

Great management in the CS org. Very little micromanagement, and lets you do your job as you see fit. Promotes work life balance and tend to be real people. Collaborative teams, usually willing to help each other out wherever needed. Good room for growth if you are performing well and are vocal about wanting to move up.

Svantaggi

Salary could be higher for the market, and for how many products you are expected to work with and specialize in. Communication from marketing and leadership directly to clients could be more effectively communicated to the client facing roles prior to reaching the client.
