Great entry level sales role

San Francisco, CA

Current Employee – been working at Yelp full-time

Pros- Amazing product
- Great people. I honestly look forward to coming to work to see my colleagues.
- Great good training.
- Fun perks like a snack kitchen, a gym subsidy, and team offsites. (AT&T Park?!)
- You can make a ton of money on commission if you are good at the job.
- All promotions are 100% merit based. If you do will, you will be promoted, if you don't, you won't. Simple and fair.
- You are not expected or encouraged to work crazy hours. Everyone works hard all day from 8-5 but this job does not involve crazy hours.
- Casual dress.

Cons- It's a sales job that you have to try at to be good at. This is not a job you can just show up for and succeed with. You have to put in 100% every day. Cold calling isn't easy and it isn't for everyone.

Advice to Senior ManagementDon't hesitate to fire sales managers who are underperforming. Cold calling small businesses is hard enough, having a checked out manager does nothing to help your reps.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
