Overall a good place. My team was not the right fit
Software Engineer Intern • Former Employee

February 8, 2014
Pros: Live in San Francisco
High pay
Weekly talks
Good culture
Cons: I did not enjoy what I was working on.
There was a weird dichotomy between well-treated software engineers (e.g., we got field trips and free lunch on Fridays) and poorly treated sales people.

Remote Work, Bad Management
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Oshawa, Ontario, Canada
November 18, 2023
Pros: Good benefits. It is a fully remote company.
Cons: Most managers are terrible at Yelp. A lot of inexperienced managers were hired in recent years with no idea how to lead. Total chaos and lack of vision and direction from them.
Work-life balance is almost non-existent in some teams. Compensation was reduced in an environment where everything is getting more expensive.
A stupid leveling system just takes away from engineers' productivity and puts unnecessary pressure on them.
Lack of transparency is a company-wide culture.
