Zillow operates a permanent remote-first policy called "CloudHQ" where 73% of its 6,800 employees work fully remote. CEO Jeremy Wacksman stated in March 2025: "There is talent everywhere in this country." Job applications quadrupled after the policy, applications from women rose 60%, and BIPOC candidates jumped 46%. The company now has employees in all 50 states versus a handful pre-pandemic. Office space shrank 73% with $26M in projected sublease income through 2030.
