Pros

work from home, good benefits

Cons

micro management, low pay, terrible commission structure, you will burn yourself out making 100 dials a day with no financial gain to show for. managers don't care about stealing money from business owners who clearly won't get an ROI either. money hungry company who works employees likes slaves and pay them crap. oh and the business owners actually HATE yelp because we harass them so much, its mandatory to call at least 2/3x a week.

Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you appreciated our remote work model and benefits, but we're sorry to hear about your frustrations with management and the high volume of required outreach. Our management style at Yelp is very hands-on, and to some this may feel like micromanagement. However, our goal with this leadership strategy is to give ample support for our sales team while they learn new sales skills and practice new tactics. This sometimes includes things like dropping in on 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. We know the Account Executive role can be challenging, and we strive to be transparent about expectations and rewards during the interview process. Thank you for your time with us, and wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.
