  • Stagnant business with questionably racist hiring practices.

    Terrible interviewing practices in my experience. I was not impressed.

      What made it terrible? I thought it was good. They do a review of your take home assignment, you explain it and the interviewer collaborates with you on improving the solution, so that was a little different but not bad.
      They also don’t make you write a lot of code, it was more system design but that might be a factor of the level I interviewed for.

      I feel their website is a lot better then zillow.
      They also integrated recently the redfin estimate and the 3D view of house.
      I'm impressed. I would consider to interview over there if a recruiter contact me.

      It's great compared to not having something like it, but I don't love it. It hard to use and it's very slow.

    Worst recruiting experience I ever had. The recruiter keep making me uncomfortable by asking way too early things like my current paycheck, where else I was interviewing, what companies I really liked, what offers I had, etc...

    It was so bad that RedFin was the only company that after I talked with a recruiter, I did not even get a screening interview...

    I have not worked there, but have friends there and interviewed there. Culture and people wise sf office looks good, but there are two main offices in Seattle ~100 or so people and sf 70-80. If they can capture the us real estate market, they have a possible 100x opportunity. Limiting factor is they have human brokers. This means they are like retail+tech.
