Pros

-Work life balance -Remote work = you can WFA

Cons

-Lower Pay compared to other similar sized firms at the same level -Overbearing boss who micromanages -Lots of bureaucracy and layers of approvals needed (all go through one director who thinks he's better than everyone else) -Low career opportunities for switching, promotions just come with more responsibilities and not much pay or title increase

Thank you for your feedback, and we are sorry that your experience on our team was anything less than what you had hoped for. Our management style at Yelp is very hands-on, and to some this may feel like micro-management. Our goal is to give ample support for our sales team while they learn new sales skills and practice new tactics. This sometimes includes things like barging calls to assist with closing deals or managers having team check-ins multiple times per day to ensure everyone is on-track to achieve their goals. In addition, our compensation package is designed to support our employees' physical and mental well-being and focuses on what our employees value most, which is total rewards. This includes health benefits, 401(k) matching, paid time off programs, family forming support, and mental health services, to name a few. Each employee's story and perspective are unique, and it only makes sense that we offer benefits and perks to support every part of them. Thank you again for sharing your feedback with us, and we wish you the best in your next role!
