Pros

Remote work, benefits are decent.

Cons

The company is very unorganized, the training was basically nonexistent, no ramp after training, was thrown into my first quarter with no ramp, not even having access to the proper tools to do my job, inherited book of business that was underperforming before I received it, so was set up for failure, didn’t gain access to proper tools until the end of the month, they don’t care, if you don’t hit your goals, that they set you up not to hit, you’ll get put on PIP. Nothing about this place is worth it, the base pay is severely below market average, and you’re lucky to receive any commission. Stay away from the sales roles, high turnover and they move your book of business frequently. Management and senior management take no accountability.

Pros

You can make good money here.

Cons

In sales, job can change often. For example: I was making good money and excelling because I am a relationship Sales person. Then they changed it to where you get the sale, and instead of being able to grow that account via that relationship you just broke into, you have to pass it to an account manager and go back to cold/robo calling. You "book" of business you recive to prospect from is a lottery. I received a book of prospects/accounts that most of the were low income, or senior living properties. They don't have a budget and have a line of renter on a waitlist. No way to convince them to spend money on advertising but you still have the same quota.

Thank you for sharing such a detailed perspective. We understand that frequent changes to roles, account ownership and business priorities can have a real impact on relationship-building and the day-to-day experience in sales. We’re glad to hear compensation was a positive part of your time at Zillow, and we appreciate you being candid about where the model and structure felt frustrating. Feedback like yours helps us better understand how these changes are experienced across teams as the business evolves.
