Pros

Fast Growth Company -Sales has high expectation to perform well and consistently -Compensation is very good for those that perform well-can make several hundred thousand dollars consistently and realistically. You definitely write your own check -Sales Leadership empowers their sales reps to succeed -Marketing is now in close communications with Sales which has allowed for more collaborative solutions, releases of solutions, and value-centric literature -Company allows for working remotely in the sales territory you reside in with not much pressure to work standard hours; just perform well and how you go about it day to day isn't much of a concern -Sales management has recently implemented support employees to aid each sales rep in being successful such as sales assistants, business development lead/meeting generators, implementation support teams to take the sale to the next level-all of which allow for the sales rep to concentrate on making more new sales -Growth within is very attainable and more likely here at Zonar than what I have seen elsewhere. Most other companies will require some Ivy League education that looks good on paper, but Zonar cares mostly about performance within and maintain their culture

Cons

Not anything significant. Just some small stuff here and there that every fast growth company deals with. Zonar usually identifies their shortfalls and tries their best to rectify from what I can tell. They do care about being the best and making the work environment the best that it can be.

Pros

The founders want to have a great culture but only come out of their ivory tower (second floor gated corner for executives only) on special occasions. They want a small, start up company feel and try to convince everyone that is what they have. They want it to be a great company.

Cons

It isn't. In another review, it said no nepotism or all boys club, but oddly enough that is exactly what it is, especially in the sales department. Only one female sales manager out of more than 50. I can't talk about other departments, but if you are looking at sales, run in the other direction. There are much, much better places to work. The change the compensation plan was to make sure most are making less. The only way you are getting promoted in sales is if you are best buds with management. There is a locker room atmosphere and unless you are close friend with management you are not likely to succeed. Friends and family are given the most productive and lucrative territories and then given bonuses for nothing other than picking up the phone when it rings. They are not looking for new customers and haven't added much in new business in years.

At Zonar we have a very diverse workforce and strive to continuously improve on that. Our sales organization in particular is one of the most diverse in the industry. Our sales management team is made up of a combined 70 years of representing Zonar solutions and services. Zonar is very family focused and when you work together for a long time, friends are like family. Zonar has a very low churn in our Field Sales department. It's easy to confuse the relationships created from this stability as friendship. Zonar offers a high payout percentage with contract term recognition guaranteed up front and no cap on commission. We pride ourselves in offering the most upside in the industry. As a privately held company, we don't publicly release our growth rate, however we are proud to share our excessive growth for over a decade while operating at a profit. As we ride this waive of rapid growth modifications have been made to allow us to scale. This could be behind the changes and how they are perceived."
