Pros

After pondering for the last 20 minutes, I really can't think of anything to contribute here. I was hopeful when I started, but there have been zero pros during this experience.

Cons

Onboarding was messy and showed no respect for my time. Provisioning is broken. I am unable to do basic functions of my job due to the many levels of disfunction during onboarding and provisioning. More micro-management than I thought possible. Was promised the world and feel like the entire experience has been a bait-and-switch. The company is dominated by insecure leadership with inflated egos and need for recognition. A condescending tone is engrained in the male-dominated leadership culture of this company.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to provide us with feedback. I’m sorry to hear that your onboarding was not up to par. Our onboarding experience is normally excellent, and we regularly receive compliments from new hires for our thoroughness and expertise. I apologize that your experience didn’t live up to our usual high standards; we aim to get 1% better every day and regularly evaluate our onboarding and provisioning practices to make sure they are top notch. If you would like to provide additional feedback on how we can improve, I encourage you to reach out to me personally or to your HR Business Partner. We welcome your thoughts! I’d like to address the topic of micro-management. As I mentioned earlier, we have very high standards for our onboarding process. It is designed to get employees up to speed and contributing to their full potential within just a few weeks of starting. As such, our managers try to be extremely visible, available, and supportive to our new hires to ensure no one is falling behind or is having any issues. It appears our managers’ intentions may have been misunderstood in this case. Finally, I am concerned to hear about potential condescending behavior or speech. Respect is central to our One Team One Dream company value, and we need to address this to make sure we are creating a safe and welcoming environment for all. I highly encourage you to reach out to your HR Business Partner if you observe this again. If you have any additional feedback that you would like to share, my door is open to you. – 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.
