Pros

The people you work with daily are smart and supportive, until you get to the people leaders and especially the VPs in the Post-sale Customer Success Org

Cons

*Most leaders in the general CS org are white men, and they seem to only promote white men *Unlimited PTO is not real, you have to get it approved by your manager, and if the team can't "support it" there is not flexibility and you get guilted into having a life. Even life events like weddings, funerals, etc. *There are blackout dates like crazy across different teams, not spoken of during hiring. Some teams follow these to a tee and more lax managers will let you slide. *Managers don't abide by same blackout dates, one team one dream, right? *Unofficial office hours start at 7:30am even on the west coast so you can expect to be working 10-12 hours daily *Everyone on my team prepped on weekends also to keep up *Salary not competitive for the tech landscape. * No cost of living increases

Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that your experience was less than favorable. Within the Customer Success organization, 50% of Vice Presidents are women, and about 48% of our promotions in the last merit cycle were women, so it’s not accurate to suggest that only men receive promotions or lead the department. We do have certain PTO blackout dates to make sure we’re able to consistently provide top-notch customer service and follow through on our commitments to our customers. This is fairly typical for a tech sales organization, but it nonetheless should have been discussed with you during hiring. I apologize if we fell down on our duties in this regard. With respect to salary, every year our compensation team compares our salary ranges to the market ranges using a high-tech survey and adjusts our ranges to match. The market rate includes the cost of living in the pay rates, so cost of living is intrinsically represented within the market data to which we annually review and align our salary ranges. We also do have annual merit-based increases. Thank you again for taking the time to leave feedback, and I wish you success in the next step of your professional journey! – Jennifer Creticos, ZoomInfo Chief Human Resources Officer

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.
