I was at Zillow for many years and left in 2020. On the tech side the pivot into iBuying was absolutely bonkers. The message from senior leadership was basically: I have no idea what your teams should be working on but it’s definitely not what they are currently working on so stop that and figure something else out.
This has nothing directly to do with their market failure but they probably are driven by the same leadership problems.

- itronitron 5y agoSounds familiar, I read this as leadership saying... "you all need to change what you are doing because you must not know what you're doing because we don't know what we're doing and we're the ones in charge."
- phlowbieuq 5y agoi wish we lived in the same area and could have an OTR conversation about this. believe it or not, the new "strategy" now that ZO is all shut down is even less well-defined and more pie-in-the-sky than ZO ever was.
