Pros

Fully stocked kitchen, Great pay POTENTIAL, SOME very inspiring managers and directors (SOME) office is up to date and in a great location. Great staff and people. i will say that this is one of the best things about working here… still not sure if this is a pro or con but recently bought out by ZILLOW. GREAT benefits

Cons

Change - i get it, a fast growing company is always evolving and changing "usually" for the best. that being said the denver office has seen to much! since january i have had 5 different managers and now 3 different directors. i cant speak for 100% of my Performer/Account Development team but we were so excited to be working for the best unit director once we heard he was moving back from the seattle office, best 3 months at Trulia were under him however he was moved to run a new team and yet again i was moved to a different manager and under a director i don't think could sell Trulia to someone who handed him there card and said i want to sign up please. "since we just lost our director to a new pilot i have a feeling a lot of us are looking for new opportunities. Also i have heard we are getting standing desks for the past 4 months, now this is something petty but whats frustrating is how its ALWAYS brought up and hey 4 months later here we are… seems to be a lot of false promises made at Trulia right now… Pay - now i could go on all day around this topic, as i said above the pay potential is uncapped and ALOT of money can be made here, that being said, before you interview ask how many sales executives hit quota.. its less then 50% and at $14 an hour you better have a second job… i think i made more in SPIFFs then actual pay in MAY, which is kinda sad when i cant even tell you how i won the SPIFF money as every other day they rolled out something new to try and mask the truth. i hate to spend more time on the con section so this will be my last comment, and i can only speak for denver but i am sure every one is unsure of what the future hold for them after being bought out by zillow. we would like to hope that there will not be a second round of layoffs but i guess only time will tell

Thank you for responding. Great to hear that you enjoy our office and working with the amazing people we have, and the benefits of working for a fast-paced, start-up & progressive company. Unfortunately, along with that kind of growth and new opportunities, can come a lot of changes. And, while we certainly try to minimize it, but, we also want to keep providing new opportunities for our top performers. I appreciate you sharing areas for improvement. And, hopefully you’ve seen the continual upgrades we’ve had in this office, latte machines, new food services, etc. And, even more are slated for this month, including new desks. I’m sorry if you weren’t aware of that. But, it just keeps getting better. And, as you’ve seen, we are busily hiring more people to help with our continued success and growth, so there’s plenty of new work to go around :) I’d be happy to speak with you 1:1 even more about any of this or more anytime. Just grab me in the hallway or let’s arrange a time to chat soon. 303.801.8126 or gbland@trulia.com. Thanks again and hope we can count on you to help us keep up our tremendous growth. Best regards… Greg Bland, VP Sales.
