    I have been working at Zomato full-time (More than 5 years)

    Pros

    I have been with Zomato for many years now and have had nothing short of a wonderful experience! It's an extremely faced paced organization (definitely not for the faint of heart), but if you're looking for an organization that will push your boundaries and challenge your existing skill set, this may be the place for you! I have had the opportunity to work on various teams throughout my time at Zomato and have always felt the support of my colleagues and the organization as a whole. Zomato is made up of strong, passionate and dedicated individuals - for me, the most important ingredient (no pun intended) of any organization. I plan to be here for many years to come!

    Cons

    People often complain about 'work life balance'. I believe you should find a career/role that you are truly passionate about. Once you have found that, this concept of 'work life balance' really loses importance. That doesn't mean it isn't important to disconnect and recharge your batteries. As human beings, this is extremely important in all aspects of our lives. However, I don't think the solution is to 'work' in a role where you merely clock in/clock out each day. When you're truly passionate about what you do (and who you do it with), it is impossible to separate the two.

    I worked at Zomato full-time

    Pros

    A company build around food with a better rating system than Yelp could ever touch.

    Cons

    They walked into work one day and laid off the entire North American staff of about 400 employees with no warning across several different offices.

    People were being paid vastly different amounts for the same job.

    Clear differences or lack of communication between HQ and North America.

    I worked at Zomato full-time (Less than a year)

    Pros

    While I was there I felt like I was part of a community and that management did a great job of hiring people with a really similar culture fit. Work as a content associate was monotonous, mainly calling restaurants for information and data entry, but there was opportunities available to do more complex tasks for those that looked for them. Lay off package was generous.

    Cons

    While I was there efficiency/speed was valued a lot more than quality. I was spending a lot of time per restaurant I researched to try and find the most accurate, comprehensive information, however, I felt that many times other coworkers who got the bare minimum and didn't completely verify information were rewarded more as long as they had higher numbers. Also they laid everybody off really fast.

    Advice to Management

    No suggestions, I liked the management choices

    Pros

    Great for self-starters, casual but make sure you stay productive. Fun, young, dynamic group.

    Cons

    Crazy level of politics and tenure mentality. They reward those who are mediocre but suck up to them.

    Advice to Management

    Get off your pedestal
