Pros

- Fully remote work and opportunity to move to different states/countries - Great colleagues

Cons

- Poor work life balance for engineers. It's not uncommon to see people commiting very late into the night. This is a personal experience from mine but I faced heavy and constant discrimination from my manager and his manager in the most recent part of my tenure. As a person of color this is something that I find very important to fight when it's present. When I brought this to the attention of my superiors they shut me out of the conversation and came back saying they found no evidence of discrimination without even working with me throughout the process. To make matters worse, my manager's manager was part of the group trying to figure out if discrimination had happened. I don't know how common this is in other departments but if you're someone who cares about DE&I I'd suggest treading a light foot around this company.

Pros

The culture at Zocdoc genuinely prioritizes collaboration and engineering excellence. My team on JavaScript Platform has been fantastic—smart, supportive colleagues who care about doing things right and helping each other grow. The benefits package is excellent, including solid healthcare (fitting for a healthcare company), generous PTO, and good work-life balance. Even at six months in, I feel like a valued contributor rather than just filling a seat.

Cons

There's been noticeable management turnover during my time here. While the day-to-day impact has been minimal thanks to strong team dynamics, it can create uncertainty around long-term direction and priorities. Something to be aware of if stability in leadership is important to you.

Pros

Zocdoc has one of the strongest company cultures I’ve experienced. The onboarding and training teams were excellent, the benefits were strong, and most of the people I worked with were genuinely kind, professional, helpful, and mission-driven. The company provided solid tools, thoughtful training, and a supportive environment for new hires.

Cons

Direct management experience may vary, and that can seriously affect the employee experience. Zocdoc had excellent training, benefits, tools, and culture, but after a team change, my experience shifted under a newer manager whose support and communication style did not reflect the same standard I experienced elsewhere in the company. Managers make or break the workplace experience, and I believe stronger oversight, coaching consistency, and manager readiness would help protect the culture Zocdoc works hard to build.
