Vantaggi

Solid place to learn about sales if you're just getting into the workforce like I was. Overtime pay that is consistently encouraged but almost never NOT approved.

Svantaggi

Where do I start... They lie to you constantly. Unlimited PTO! unless its end of month, end of quarter, end of year. Oh but if you're friends with your manager you'll be fine. I was told I couldn't get PTO for end of the month yet another teammate who was performing just as well as me got 4 days off at the end of the month. Zero empathy for people going into office. First off you were told that it was going to be 1x / week going in but turned into 3 now its looking to be 4. They set it to a 30 mile radius but that screws over people that live in high traffic areas like myself who drive bare minimum 1hr to work. And we aren't getting compensated for parking in the building's garage (comes out to $120 per month btw). Like I said if you're friends w management they'll let things slide like a friend of mine who was the same distance away but wasn't pressured to go into office. CONSTANT micromanagement. They also hold you to metrics that are ultimately out of your control. "You need 10+ phone connections" tough to control someone else picking up their phone from a number they don't know lets be real. I can't speak for AE's and AM's but for the majority of SDRs the compensation and commission sucks. Inbound SDR's don't even get commission for closed deals. Outbound SDR's get a fraction of a fraction of closed deals and its taxed 50% so you barely see anything from your hard earned money. Daily morning and end of day meetings where you go over metrics from the day that the whole team can already see during the day...COMPLETE WASTES OF TIME. The only way you succeed is by putting in far more than 40hr weeks.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review here. We care tremendously about our employees' ability to thrive here and can assure you that no one got their job because “they’re friends with management”. They're here because they've got the grit, the attitude, the skills, and the smarts, and they add something to the culture we care about. They keep their job because they perform and are good team members to others. As you know our CEO, Henry, believes in the Return to Office, and we’ve had an RTO policy since the beginning of the year, while it has been mandatory since then, he has tried to give everyone time to adjust to a new normal. We have come to the point where he believes the benefits of the RTO policy outweigh the additional time for adjustment. We want to see you thrive and enjoy our culture, if you have additional thoughts on how we can become better, we would love to know by reaching out to your HR Business Partner. Thank you.

Difficult macro environment for the company and industry

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
