Pros

Fun, hardworking people. Good benefits. Great products.

Cons

The company is all over the place. There is a constant struggle for power with ideas being yelled out and not shared properly. The founders and original management team have been in charge for too long and when you disagree with them you get fired. This was not the case with me I just saw it happen a lot.

Pros

If you do not want to hire contracts!! Stop wasting time on us!! If you do not have budget to fund the projects dnt play with the lifes of contractors!! Beware of this company and the management!! They suck at Communication!! Internal Politics!! I was hired by Zonar for a project and on the day of joining they called me to the recruiter office sign up the contract paperwork and on the 2nd day they say they are in housing the project!!! Please grow up Zonar and stop playing with peoples jobs!!! They called me for the project within one day and wanted immediate joining!! Beware of this company they dont even care for re-reimbursing the travel , I had to fly back on the 2nd day itself!!!

Cons

No Pros!!! Only Cons!!! So Cons in the Pros!!

Thank you for your review. It is unfortunate that we had to realign our team’s trajectory to meet customer needs, which resulted in a transition away from contracted employees. Thank you for your feedback!

Pros

Co-workers are extremely intelligent and most friendly. The products are interesting and challenging. Decent location. Paid timely. Good places to eat nearby.

Cons

The work environment is extremely hostile, mostly within upper management. The office politics are never ending. People are constantly under stress and it shows. This is a common theme in online reviews because it's true! It's an "eye-for-an-eye" within management so you must be careful or eventually you will be thrown under the bus as well.

Zonar Systems Response

Hello, it is unfortunate that you had such a bad experience with Zonar. Things are moving at lightning speed right now and we thrive to have a fair environment. We are currently holding focus groups with all our employees to figure out our blind spots and work on closing those. Wishing you success in your career.
