I think I'm kind of halfway between the two sounds. The z sound is lazier, and I suspect that if I were saying the name conversationally (which I rarely would, because all of the Josephs in my life go by Joe or Joey exclusively) it would sound like JOE-zif, but if I am reading aloud from a text, I say, "JOE-sif."

I am in the mid-Atlantic coast area of the U.S., where we have truly terrible accents.
