How’s Zillow for a software engineer ? Specially someone on H1b, I have 3 yrs of H1B left with I140 approved, does Zillow immediately starts gc process upon hire ?
Just a clarification, you have unlimited H1 B now with I140 approved .
I mean yes but my i140 has be to filed again by new employer to have it extended beyond 6 years ? Na or one I140 approval is enough ?
I would not join Zillow now, the culture is changing a lot, and not for the best. Wait a bit till it settles
Can you elaborate?
Agree. You can do better.
Things are being micromanaged by new management people who have no idea about company culture and are trying to implement culture and methods in Zillow from their past experience. Now your performance = Tickets done.
Could you elaborate what are the evidences that they measure performance based on num tickets? Was your previous year perf measured that way? Also, which role are you? I think it may depend on the role/team too. My experience has been pretty awesome so far. Moreover, I think some of the new culture is not necessarily always a bad thing. Let's be open minded :)
By "tickets done", do you mean if I'm a software engineer I'm evaluated just based on something like number of bugs fixed /CLs merged / lines of code written?

Zillow starts H-1B after 3 months from your join date. If your manager thinks you are good, they will start it soon.
Are you saying starting gc after 3 months? Not H1B.
Yes GC. Not H-1B.
