A Peek into Life at Zillow

HP shows his dexterity and flexibility doing the limbo
Ask a Zillowite why they love working here, and I think you’d find a consistent theme: The people, the product, and the potential. All of these energize us to do better, be better, take risks and have fun along the way. As the old saying goes, “home is where the heart is.” Let’s face it: we put so much of our energy, time and heart into our jobs, why not strive to work at a place where you love what you do and truly enjoy the people you work with?
Here’s a little glimpse at how we like to take breaks together. This past Monday, we decorated the main hangout space in the Seattle office, turned up the tunes, brought out some yummy food and beverages and had a little Cinco de Mayo fun together. Our newest team member, April (who started just 6 hours before the party), along with our intern, Eli, muscled up and took a swat at the piñata. H.P. then showed us up with his extreme flexibility in the limbo contest. OK, every day is not a party here at Zillow, but while working hard we do enjoy ping-pong breaks, Guitar Hero, a rousing game of darts and, of course, air hockey.
If this looks and sounds like fun to you, while doing a job that you love, please check out our current jobs. We are growing and have some pretty cool opportunities available right now. We think we’re onto something big. Come join us!

I really love Zillowblog site and its useful info.
In that Limbo picture, HP looks like Jason Lee in “My name is Earl”.
