Tim Zagat
Former Employee – worked at ZAGAT
Pros – Working at Zagat was enjoyable. The work was challenging and the coworkers were great. Casual work environment and a great location.
Cons – Very political. It was easy to see who were favorites of senior management and those people were beyond reproach. Benefits are only okay. Pay was below market value.
Advice to Senior Management – Put more faith in your employees. You hire people for a reason and then disregard their advice.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Former Employee – worked at ZAGAT
Pros – Great product and brand, and for the most part the people are great. The sales management staff is pretty good and all in all it's a "fun" job and a great product to sell. Sales goals are very reasonable and fair, and the opportunity for growth is definitely there too.
Cons – Very low pay, "Mom and Pop" company that is a little old fashioned and hesitant to change. There are also definite favorites among the staff but hard workers are surely appreciated. Many internal struggles since so many hands are on any given project. Employees need to be willing to wear many hats in order to be successful.
Advice to Senior Management – Online content should be free!
