Pros

One of the worst companies to work with. No pros about working here, unless you are incompetent and like workplace politics. You can either choose to save yourself by learning from others' mistakes or join Yelp and suffer.

Cons

Untrustworthy managers. Anything you speak with anybody at Yelp is broadcasted to everybody else. I would advise with great emphasis: do not speak much. Do not tell your manager anything. They are creating a file against you to fire you whenever they want.

Managers at Yelp have only one job: create files and micromanage. Be very careful of old employees – they are not your friends.

The overall culture is very toxic, and people rarely stick around. The ones who stay are part of this toxic culture. The HR is against you. The "policies" are just a way to fire people. Nobody follows a single workplace policy like respect, no racism, or diversity, etc.

Advice to Management

What do you get by ruining lives and careers? What do you get by the mental abuse?
