Pros

Henry, the CEO, appears as a nice guy and a hard worker, but given my experience, he seems like a different guy behind the scenes.

Cons

ZoomInfo matched my salary with RSUs (restricted stock units) set to fully vest in 25 months. After 21 months, I transitioned to a new position thanks to a referral from an executive leader. Three months later, and after the third round of layoffs during my short time, my position was eliminated, and I received $0 of the RSUs from my offer letter, one month before I was fully vested. The only thing consistent at ZoomInfo is change. Given the consistent rounds of layoffs and executives ‘leaving’ the company, it honestly felt like your role could be eliminated at any time. There was a lack of quality people leaders, and most managers had serious trust issues with delegating work to individual contributors. This culture likely stems from an unrealistic goal of remaining 40% profitable as the company continues to grow. As soon as that goal is in jeopardy, they eliminate roles. Save yourself the time and avoid working for this company.

Pros

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

Cons

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.
