King Trivia Inc.

Management treats quizmasters haphazardly. 
To be a quizmaster is a calling for the brave to juggle the requirements of the company, audio equipment, Wi-Fi at venue, drunks, issues with company link, parents with kids unattended, restaurant staff, finding players. 

On a great night it is awesome in spite of the various things one deals with. On a tough night it is tough when few players, doing trivia in the freezing cold outdoors sometimes, terrible audio issues. 

Beware of regional managers who undermine others, cry wolf, passive aggressive, favoritism, discrimination. Micromanage. 

Little chance of advancement or reimbursement for travel time and gas. If you complain then your venue is taken from you and they layoff by email. Heartless.

Pros
Great restaurants with excellent food, tips, appreciation of regular teams and enthusiasm of new teams, having fun, night time recess

Cons
No positive support, No acknowledgement of your efforts. No HR or proper timely follow up of concerns.

So let's start with the good. I did my training, and the person I trained with was really kind and it seemed like a really fun job. That's where the good stops. I was told I'd be given a gig within 2-3 weeks. It's been 4 months and I still haven't been assigned anything. When I reached out, I was told it was because I didn't fill out my paperwork when I had had it filled out for weeks. But, hey, maybe something got lost in the internet. So I filled it out again and surprisingly they found my first submission. But still nothing. They've reached out to me a total of 3 times in that time asking me to substitute a one-off round because their regular person called out. Often times this is with very minimal notice and in areas that are over an hour away and, with gas prices what they are, just not worth the basically minimum wage pay. And yet they keep hiring. It's even in the quizmaster script that they're always hiring and they're just OH SO BUSY with gigs but if my experience says anything...

First off, you get to run the trivia show HOW YOU WANT TO! If you are very independent and love to perform, this job is for you. I love to throw in jokes and keep things fun. Some of the perks are that you get $25 toward your tab (food, drink, or alcohol *yes you can have a few on the job!*). Management is absolutely amazing. They've offered to pay my phone bill so I could do my job! They've also bought my microphone and cord. They always make sure that you are taken care of as a Quizmaster. Workplace culture is amazing because you can relax and be yourself, especially if your venue is a bar. I've learned how to speak in front of a large group and it's given me the confidence to throw in jokes where everyone laughs (most of the time). When I get a full time job, I'm still going to work here. 

A typical day at work is making people laugh and have a good time while flexing their brains! I have learned that just because someone may say they don't want to play the game when you first offer, they can still come back later because everyone else is having such a good time, they decide to join in!

Management is very kind and responsive. There was never a time I was in trouble or needed help, and they weren't there and able to assist. The workplace culture is fun and exciting! The hardest part of the job is when not many people are in the venue. The most enjoyable part is the joy we bring to people's night and the love we get from the venue staff!

After filling out tons of paperwork and reading mostly useless "training", I started my first night with everything screwed up. The equipment that was supposed to be delivered in advance was not. What was there didn't work. All contact numbers I had from management never answered. After getting it all together the job started to be fun but that was all me as I received no support from management. Then after 5 months the bar that did absolutely no promotion for the games decided to end them. No reason given and no support fro Kings on finding another gig. Highly NOT recommended. 

I host a weekly event with Kimg Trivia and it makes every Thursday so much fun!
They have answers for every problem I come across and are very prompt if I'm questioning anything.
Training was fun and super informative, and I'm taken care of by both my venue and this company.
I've looked at other trivia companies and they just don't compare to the hospitality I feel with King Trivia.

I’ve been hired with King Trivia now for a year and it has been a great experience!! The management is very responsive, fun and understanding as well as the pay and tab for hosts makes it extra worth it! It’s been a blast hosting as a side gig and I hope to continue with King Trivia for as long as I can!

Greatest job ever, wearing big girl/boy pants necessary as it is mostly independent work. It is absolutely dependable on how good YOU are overall; if you complete your tasks on time, deliver a great show for the patrons at each venue, the better you will do. 
It is great when you are requested for a show or sought out at other venues because you host a great show!

It's a great gig to be honest. You get to entertain really eclectic groups of people at fun bar and restaurant locations while drinking free beer (usually). My only gripe was that management kept making the paperwork part more of a hassle and finding small reasons to cut my pay. Also, management was very impersonal. 

Great supplement to working in college, and really flexible times for me personally, being able to work about two and half hours on work nights while still getting enough time to sleep!
