For the 5th year in a row, our people have put Zillow on the PEOPLE Companies that Care® list. The honor belongs to the employees who drive impact, belonging and innovation every day. At a recent zRetreat - one of our Cloud HQ in person gatherings - we asked: “Why do you love working here?” Turns out there are too many reasons to fit into one video. Here’s a short version, in our colleagues’ own words.
What happens when more than 1,700 employees hit pause on their day jobs to dream up the future? Hack Week. Zillow’s annual innovation sprint. It’s a chance for employees across teams and time zones to design, build and test bold new ideas that help movers, agents and each other. And it’s just as much about building connections and culture as it is about moving ideas forward. Big thanks to everyone who made this year’s Hack Week possible.

What does belonging mean to you? These stories are a reminder that when employees feel seen, valued and supported, they do their best work. And we’re a stronger company because of it. If you want to find out more about Zillow’s inclusive culture, visit our careers page: www.zillow.com/careers
We’re not remote-first. We’re strategy-first. Cloud HQ is our intentional, distributed model that cuts out the politics of proximity and drives deeper connection and innovation across the company. Chief People Officer Dan Spaulding breaks down why it works: ➡️ We document and share our strategy clearly, so every employee knows how to operate within it. It’s baked into our culture. ➡️ We prioritize in-person time, too. Our annual zRetreats bring teams together to build trust and alignment. ➡️ And it’s working: Business results are strong and job applications quadrupled after we moved our headquarters to the cloud.

At Zillow, remote work isn’t just supported — it’s thoughtfully engineered for performance. With Cloud HQ, our distributed workforce model, we’ve reimagined collaboration to drive real impact. • Everyone has a seat at the table (or box on the Zoom screen) • We’re investing in tools that deliver faster answers, smarter decisions and AI-powered innovation • We come together in person when it matters most: planning cycles, Hack Week, and cross-functional zRetreats that spark bold ideas As Cynthia Taylor told Inc. Magazine, this approach has helped us grow the business — and the culture behind it. The business is consistently outperforming in residential revenue and 94% of employees say they’re proud to work here. That pride shows up in everything we build.
The Women's Impact Network (WIN) plays a crucial role in fostering an inclusive and supportive environment for women at Zillow. WIN is an employee-led group that creates spaces for women to share common interests, build trust and develop relationships. It also provides leadership and professional development opportunities, helping women advance in their careers. In partnership with ENVSN Festival, we were able to bring WIN’s initiatives to life at the 'We All Sit' Brunch. This networking event created a valuable space for women to connect and collaborate. It was a testament to mindful community building, bringing together women leaders in real estate, sales and marketing to uplift each other, celebrate successes and provide tools to accomplish their goals. Join us in celebrating the achievements and contributions of women at Zillow. Together, we are building the future of real estate. Check out our career site to see our open roles: zillow.com/careers
Did you know we offer a $75 per month reimbursement for fitness expenses, which can be used for gym memberships, fitness classes, personal training sessions and even athletic event registration fees? We are championing health for our employees in the way that makes the most sense to them. In addition to promoting physical health, we also support the causes our employees care about through our Z4Good program. This initiative allows employees to contribute to various charitable organizations, and Zillow matches these donations, amplifying the impact of their generosity. Join us in celebrating a workplace that prioritizes both personal well-being and community support and see how our employees turned that into miles and meaning at the Miami Dolphins 5K Cancer Challenge.
