Thank you for this review.
I try to do frequent company meetings, and lots of small group meetings, in order to keep communication very open between execs and the entire company. You're right that cross-team collaboration becomes harder as the company grows, but it's something I'm working hard on and I think we're definitely better than most companies. Always room for improvement though!

Thank you for sharing your experience as an intern at Zillow. We’re glad to hear that your team felt collaborative and supportive, and that your managers helped create a positive environment overall.

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.
