Pros

Household name and overtime possibilities.

Cons

Sweat shop atmosphere as soon as you’re hired. You are put against coworkers who are favorited with Ring Central so they can achieve any sales goals. Only thing is that a handful of people get ring central and they make it a secret who does but compares everyone to them. It’s like playing baseball and some people are on steroids and get praised for it. Very buddy, buddy, good ol boys club vibes there. Daily camera on Zoom meetings at 8am that are mandatory. Management can be as clueless as you are because they were thrusted in the position based off constant layoffs. They make you come into the office to make calls all day on a lid sales floor because they claim it’s more productive than being at home. There’s no longevity there, just a ok job for coming out of college. They want to you get 50 completed meetings a month no matter what or you’re fired. The only real good part of the job was working OT at your leisure and some snacks on site. The CEO mad an announcement saying we were going to come in the office three days a week max and an hour later the VP made another announcement saying it will be a mandatory four day work week in office. This place is a joke.

Thanks for sharing your experience as an employee of our Sales org. Our culture is fast-paced and yes it’s demanding but we are making great strides in our learning and developing offerings to ensure our employees thrive and can find a great work-life balance. For the Sales team in particular, we’ve instituted end-of-quarter no-internal-meetings week to help our employees balance their workload. And recently instituted two 2.5-hour no-meetings blocks per week company-wide. And we are constantly evaluating the organization, ensuring that we have the right people in the right roles to drive our long-term growth and success. With many new managers on board, we offer targeted learning programs for our managers to continue to grow their skills in giving feedback and coaching. Our VPs are allowed to adjust expectations at their discretion and we outlined very clearly our return to office expectation for SDRs stating they will be in the office 4 days a week in September. Sorry ZI wasn’t a fit and we wish you all the best.

Toxic Place to Work

Pros

There are smart and kind colleagues, my pay was at market rate, and they have a good tech stack

Cons

- Work/life balance doesn't exist: I worked 80-100 hours per week despite actively working with my manager and VP on prioritizing asks from other cross-functional teams. Unlimited PTO looks good on paper, but there are black out periods (in December 2020, sales and marketing weren't allowed to take time off) and unmovable deadlines meant I had to over-work on other days, negating any time I took off. - Poor executive leadership: The executive team isn't well aligned, they had unrealistic deadlines, and they yell and berate you in front of others. - High churn of amazing people: I saw great people get burned out, snap, or could not justify sustaining their way of work at ZoomInfo in the long-term because of the toxic environment created by the above two points. - Healthcare benefits are poor: For the Greater Boston area, coverage was so terrible that I switched to my husband's health insurance.

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. I never like to hear that an employee left ZoomInfo on bad terms. With regard to your work/life balance, 80-100 hours is not typical of ZoomInfo and I am sorry that was your experience. I also want to be clear that we absolutely do not tolerate bullying or harassment of any kind. If you would like to reach out to discuss what you experienced, I would be more than happy to speak with you personally. I would like to address your points about turnover and healthcare coverage as well. The talent ecosystem of mid- to large-sized SaaS companies, as well as the current economy and job market, means that hiring is extremely fast-paced and competitive, and can lead to a perception of churn. However, I’m happy to report that our turnover is actually below the industry benchmark. And although our benefits offerings are already great for our industry, we are making incremental improvements every single year. We keep extremely close tabs on the types of coverages our employees need for themselves and their families, as evidenced by our expanded Vision, Dental, and EPO healthcare plan options for this year – with even more improvements on the way for 2022! Thank you again for taking the time to leave your thoughts. – Alyssa Lahar, Chief Human Resources Officer

Pros

They teach you how to be a great salesman at the top of your experience. Training was on point even during the pandemic. There are many brilliant, helpful, and friendly people who work there. Expectations are made clear.

Cons

-Middle and senior management are nothing but bullies. -Daily verbal and emotional abuse-seriously taxing on mental health. -The obsession with winning and success prevents them from handling failure well. -Grind. Goodbye weekends! Work/life balance is a foreign concept. -Diversity- It's the PNW, so unfortunately this is common, but there are very few efforts made by HR or the company at large to engage with black / brown / trans communities. -Punitive environment, not supportive. -Bro culture 100% -TURN OVER-- so many of my previous colleagues there have either been abruptly laid off, fired, or quit.

Thank you for your feedback. We place a huge amount of emphasis on training in sales and throughout our organization. It’s critically important that, as the base of our sales organization, these individuals receive the gold standard in training. We’re pleased to hear you benefited from the experience, as well as the help and support of your colleagues. It is incumbent upon each ZoomInfo employee to embrace One Team One Dream, which means everyone is willing to lend a helping hand and push each other to Define New Possibles. We are working very hard to increase the diversity of our talent, and have made outreach to HBCUs a top recruiting priority over the past year. We also have a very active network of Employee Resource Groups that supports our Diversity and Inclusion initiatives. And it’s growing – last month we introduced a new ERG supporting Asian American & Pacific Islanders and this month we launched a new ERG to support overall wellness with an emphasis on mental health. We have several more events lined up for this month including an educational Juneteenth presentation and two separate Pride celebrations. Regarding turnover, we are pleased to report that our turnover is lower than the industry average. Thank you again for your perspectives, and we wish you luck in your next career move. - The ZoomInfo Employee Experience Team
